FYI behavioral stats and business stats were similar, but the business one had a lot of formula's that for me were hard to grasp.
Linda, you have a strong background in math/science so these courses will most likely be much easy for you than they were for me. Here's my review on the stats courses.
Intro to Stats (STA201) = definitely the easiest.
Beh Stats (STA201) = 2nd best option (a dupl for Intro so makes no sense to take this unless you are a Soc Sci major and contemplating a MS in the future. This is why I wanted it on my transcript just in case.)
Bus Stats (OPM351) = much harder (IMO). It has more modules and as such more questions/greater difficulty on the initial assessment. If you should score 70+ on the initial assessment great; if not, it has more indepth/difficult questions than the other stats courses. Not easy by any stretch of the imagination. Again, just my opinion. In reading through reviews on this forum others have had a different experience so YMMV.
