Stats: The S is for Sucks


So because I decided to be a big nerd and take a statistics class as a non-degree-seeking student, I get to take a beast of a final tomorrow at 8:00 am. It was described to me by a classmate who took it early as having destroyed her will to live. Awesome.

I'm glad I took the class because I've learned a lot that has helped me in my work now, and I know I will be in better shape once I start a doctoral program (eek). That said, despite my funny professor and lovely classmates, I still hated every minute of it. I am such a qualitative person at heart.

This cartoon made me laugh. That's about how I feel right now, though my fate would be death by inference for regression.

For a Monday treat, here's the classic Trogdor clip that inspired this posting's header. "I said CONSUMMATE v's!"

  1. I feel your pain! However, I too, learned a lot from my stats class this past semester:
    1.) NEVER take a stats class at 8 a.m.
    2.) I suck at statistics!
