AP Statistics

Advanced Placement Statistics is a rigorous course for academically talented juniors and seniors that may be taken concurrently with or subsequent to Pre-Calculus. This course is geared specifically toward the ETS Advanced Placement Statistics Exam and can mean a waiver of college freshman math and/or receipt of college credit. Four areas of study as cited by the College Board will include exploring data, planning a study by deciding what and how to measure, anticipating patterns using models from probability theory and simulation, and statistical inference. Students planning to take this course must have an advanced graphing calculator such as a TI 84+ which will be used extensively to model problems. The course is designed for college preparatory students with interests in physical, biological and social sciences or mathematics.  This course may be taken for credit even if credit was earned in Probability and Statistics.
