AP Statistics
Course Description
This course is the equivalent of an introductory college-level course. Statistics—the art of drawing conclusions from imperfect data and the science of real world uncertainties—plays an important role in many fields. Students collect, analyze, graph, and interpret real-world data. They learn to design and analyze research studies by reviewing and evaluating examples from real research. Students prepare for the AP® Exam and for further study in science, sociology, medicine, engineering, political science, geography, and business.
