Midterm 1: Chapters 1 through 8, material from Chapter 9 may be used as extra credit. You may bring one (two-sided) 8.5 by 11 sheet of notes!

Practice Exam: pdf Solution: pdf I realized that the practice exam does not include any questions about correlaton. However, this will be covered on the midterm, so you should review the lecture notes and homework problems related to that material.

In class quiz on Probability. This quiz will focus on the definitions of disjoint events and independent events – both in terms of their intuitive meaning and the formal definitions (that is, how to check whether or not two events are disjoint or independent). The quiz will not include any questions about Bayes’ Rule. You may use a 1 page notes sheet (start making your notes for the next midterm!)

Final. Applied problems will mainly focus on inference: Chapters 18 through 23 and 25 of the 4th edition, or Chapters 19 through 25 and 27 in the 3rd edition. Material from earlier chapters will also be referenced, especially the normal model, correlation, and ideas about linear regression from the earlier chapters (5 to 8 in the 4th edition, 6 to 9 in the 3rd edition).

The conceptual problems will also cover material about observational studies, sampling methods, and elements of experimental design from Chapters 11 and 12 of the 4th edition, Chapters 12 and 13 of the 3rd edition.

I will not ask you to do any probability calculations on the final, but may ask about the conceptual interpretations of independent and disjoint events.

You may bring three (two-sided) 8.5 by 11 sheets of notes!

You will also need to bring your own calculator!!!

You will need to take this final in an open-book room.
