Course summary

Statistics is used in everything from deciding how much orange juice Booths or Aldi will buy next year, to whether or not a new drug will indeed cure a serious illness. Statistics A-Level is a subject relating to the collection, analysis, interpretation or explanation and presentation of data. This branch of Mathematics is used in situations involving variability or uncertainty, such as weather forecasting, finance or assessing the effects of medicines. For the Statistics course, we highly recommend the Casio fx-CG50 calculators which are available to purchase at a reduced price through College once the course has started.
