Most problems presented in core texts are repetitious and require students merely to do some computation, look something up in a table, or recall the proper Excel command. Even study guides and review manuals do not push the student beyond this introductory level. 101 Special Practice Problems in Probability and Statistics, fourth edition, challenges students to think at a higher than basic level, without involving a higher level of mathematics, while still teaching them to solve diverse groups of problems such as those they find on most exams. The book s approach will put an end to the frequently heard student lament, I did fine on the homework, but I was BLOWN AWAY by the exam! This new edition contains additional class-tested problems to further increase an emphasis on the use of Excel. A mini CD-ROM containing data sets for the appropriate problems, is included with each book.

Good Practice and Accomplice to a Thorough Textbook,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 101 Special Practice Problems in Probability and Statistics (Paperback)
Very good comprehensive testing of one's grasp of the concepts involved. Maybe helpful if each chapter gave a short list beforehand of what is covered in the questions in general so thorough review beforehand is possible, but the questions themselves are top-notch--actually challenging compared to whatever text you're most likely using, but definitely solvable if you know what you've learned and are thorough/careful.
I'd definitely recommend it if you need the practice or your teacher likes to give out hard exams that aren't representative of the homework.
