What level math should you be good at to be successful in a statistics class?
I was a Psychology major and was AWFUL at math. But I passed regular statistics w/ a B. Then when I got to grad school %26amp; had to take advanced statistics I flunked the course 3 times %26amp; then gave up. I never got my masters all because of that ONE f*cking class. I hope you have better luck than I did.
Reply:Undergrad statistics will be hard if you have trouble with algebra. Graduate statistics is a nightmare if you are not a mathematician.





Prepare to find tutoring if you are going to take the class.

Reply:Statistics is the art of measuring mass phenomena through small samples. If you have a logical mind the math is secondary. I just finished my PhD in psychology and have taught stats on many occasions. My math background is not high: I took trig in high school and college algebra in college. The important thing is to pay attention, read ahead, ask questions, and don't be scared of the formulas!
Reply:The level of math doesn't really predict how well you'll do in stats. I passed the AP Calc test with a score of 5 in high school, didn't take any stats until grad. school and still did mediocre. The moral is, stats will be hard for anyone who DOESN'T STUDY. Hire a tutor early on if you feel lost in class.
