Congratulations to all of you for having successfully completed all the content for AP Statistics.

Throughout this course you have achieved the following:

Skills

 To produce convincing oral and written statistical arguments in a variety of applied settings.
 When and how to use technology to aid them in solving statistical problems

Knowledge

 Essential techniques for producing data (surveys, experiments, observational studies), analyzing data
(graphical & numerical summaries), modeling data (probability, random variables, sampling distributions),
and drawing conclusions from data (inference procedures – confidence intervals and significance tests)

Habits of mind

 To become critical consumers of published statistical results by heightening their awareness of ways in
which statistics can be improperly used to mislead, confuse, or distort the truth.

You may now officially consider yourselves true statisticians, and I hope you can appreciate and make use of the
