Success Comes in Small Doses
As I have noted before, statistics is just not my bag! I can read papers that explain the numbers and understand that, but I just can't understand the t tests, and correlation coefficients, etc. I sometimes wonder that there is some top-secret statistics guy that sits in a hidden office somewhere, thinking up equations and weird names for all things statistical, just to confound those of us who just don't get it.
Anyway, we had review for our final exam last night. On one question, the heavens opened and the angel chorus sounded as Katrina, that right, me!, got an answer correct! I was flabergasted, to say the least! Maybe there is hope for me yet (but I still have lots that I don't get!).
My first semester is almost over, and things look good on the grades end of it, except for statistics. I'm hoping for divine intervention!

There is SO a guy sitting in a room somewhere coming up with this stuff that makes no logical sense! I KNOW it! I'm still trying to get through College Algebra for Pete's sake! :-)
