Board 8 > So I know it's easy math, but I'm pretty damn proud I did good on my stats exam

(+) Yeah! (+)

Statistics in psychology at least. I have never been good at math in any form and I was worried the trend would continue. This was especially troublesome since I need a good grade in this class to get accepted into the masters program for industrial psychology. Well got back my first exam grade and got 95 so I'm lighter than air now!

Good for you. I'm thinking of studying psychology as it seems very interesting but I fear for statistics and just psychology itself. I mean, I'm not afraid it will be difficult, but more that will just be a lot.

Nice. For a math major, it's kind of surprising that I never really had to take a class on statistics. (I took a "stat and probability" course, but that was more about probabilistic distributions and less about practical application.) I wish I knew more about that stuff, but I'm not enough of a self-starter to teach it to myself.

Well trust me, stats is nowhere near as bad as i thought it would be! And if you do study Psychology just make sure you go to grad school as well! Unfortunately the best a Bachelors will get you is a basic Human Resource job.

Stats was easy. I liked my ap stats class though, even though the teacher told me on day 1 i would fail his class and get a 1 and should just drop out now. This was to me personally, not the class. (I got an A and a 5).

Yeah, you need at least an MS in psychology for anything worthwhile, and if you want to do therapy you need more schooling beyond that (though not necessarily as much as a PhD/PsyD). Psych stats can be the easiest or hardest math classes ever. I got a C in my stats class, but then I got an A in my Research Methods classes and B+s in my Masters level Research classes. My grades fluctuated about 80% based on how much of a dick the professor was.
