Overview
AP Statistics is a rigorous, college-level course that introduces students to the major concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data. Mastering AP Stats helps students develop statistical literacy and analytical skills vital for STEM, business, social science, and data-driven careers.
Course Content
- Exploring Data: Describing patterns, distributions, and relationships in univariate and bivariate data using graphs and numerical summaries.
- Sampling and Experimentation: Planning and conducting surveys, observational studies, and experiments; understanding bias and sampling methods.
- Probability: Basic probability rules, random variables, probability distributions, simulations, and expected value.
- Statistical Inference: Estimating population parameters and testing hypotheses using confidence intervals, significance tests, and inference for means and proportions.
- Regression Analysis: Interpreting linear regression, residuals, and correlation.
- Exam Strategies: Practice with multiple-choice and free-response question types, calculator use, and interpreting real AP exam rubrics.
Exam Structure
- Section I: Multiple Choice – 40 questions (50% of score, 1 hr 30 min)
- Section II: Free Response – 6 questions (50% of score, 1 hr 30 min)
- Calculator is required for both sections.
- Free response includes investigative tasks and extended reasoning problems.
