Tatauranga | Statistics

Statistics is a University Entrance course and can lead to careers in Accounting, Biology, Computer Science, Economics, Engineering, Management, Data Science, and Physics.
A lot of the content involves contextualising and analysing data and reports. This can be very useful personally for interpreting media and research yourself for validity.

This term we will finish the time series assessment and do Formal Inference. This involves looking at one measure between two or more groups.

Hopefully we will have time to start looking at probability concepts at the end of the term.
