2.0 out of 5 stars Another hard-to-understand stats book, September 30, 2005

J. Dempsey (San Jose, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: A Brief Course in Business Statistics (Paperback)

This book was found to be difficult to use by myself and other students in my MBA program. We are currently looking for an easier-to-understand book that is advanced enough for an MBA program. Our accompanying Schleifer/Bell book appears to be much easier to understand, although it doesn't cover all of the same topics.

However, I don't regret buying this book...I typically buy the textbooks for my classes, especially if I can get them for a reasonable price.
