1. Boxplot properties and attributes. (outliers, quartiles, min, and max)

2. Summary statistics (mean, mode, median, Q1, Q2, Q3, IQR, sd, variance, range)

3. Empirical Rule (68%, 95%, ‘practically all’)

4. Probability (2x2 table, union, intersection, conditional, mutually exclusive)

5. Binomial distribution (pdf, mean, sd, var, use of pdf table)

6. Poisson distribution (pfd, mean, sd, var, use of pdf table)

7. Standard Normal Z distribution (find probabilities using table)

8. Non-Standard Normal (find probabilities using table)

9.  Find percentiles for Normal Distributions.

10. Using the Normal Distribution to approximate Binomial probabilities.

11.  Bring a calculator (or one on your phone), PENCIL, Z table,

      and one sheet of paper with anything you wish written on it.

      We will provide Binomial and Poisson tables for the exam.
