AP Statistics is an introductory statistics course that matches a first year statistics course in college. In this course we learn how to explore and communicate data, gather data, and analyze data. We also work with probability.
Statistics is one of the most useful topics that you can learn in high school as it applies to basically every career. In that light, the problems that we will be working on throughout the year will vary greatly in the focus topics.
There are a couple ways to receive college credit for this course. Students can take the AP test in May. A high enough score on that test will earn them credits for most colleges nationwide. Students can also sign up for the College in the High School Program and earn Everett Community College credits for successfully completing the course. If you have questions about either of these, feel free to ask me about them.
