<p>I’m a freshman majoring in Economics but I have never taken a Stat class in my life (though I think It’ll be something I like). In high school I went with the AP Calc path and received credit for Math 124 (required for Econ too) but I have never taken a Stat class. What is Stat 311 about? What is the difficulty level in Stat compared to Calc?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>From what I’ve heard Stat is much easier to wrap your head around than Calc. Also, I have a related question… How is the online Stat 311 class?</p>
<p>I took AP Stat last year (I am a senior in high school) so I may be able to offer some insight. I get out of the class bc of my AP score. The concepts are relatively easy, but be prepared for a lot of busy work (at least that’s how it is in AP Stat, not positive about UW). It is nothing like calc; in fact, it isn’t even really math. It’s just analyzing data and interpreting various sets/scatterplots etc. If you are a logical/analytical thinker, you will do just fine.</p>
