Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Simon & Schuster Advanced Placement Companion: Statistics is an effective learning tool that can accompany any first-year or introductory college statistics course. This program teaches AP candidates how to explore data, uncover patterns, and analyze the results. It teaches inference--the second phase of data analysis--and how to avoid errant and presumptive conclusions.

To help users along, self-testing sections in various formats accompany each topic and offer immediate results. Useful hints and concise text further help users to intuit correct answers and to summarize important concepts. Other features include easy links to enhance study and exploration, quality video demonstrations to reinforce lessons, and easy-to-understand explanations and real-world examples.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too Simplistic, March 23, 2003

This review is from: Advanced Placement Companion Statistics (CD-ROM)

The "Advanced Placement" part of the title is deceiving -- the software is too simplistic to be of real practical use, except perhaps for someone who is in the early part of an Introductory Stat course or who wants a preview of what Stats might be like for the first time.
