[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AP stats is what kids usually take when they have exhausted other math, so most schools don’t offer it until later in the sequence and at least at our HS, gave preference for seniors who needed the math requirement but had taken everything else and weren’t doing dual enrollment.

AP Stats is what students take when *the student* is exhausted of math and doesn't want to go further, or is at a weak  school that doesn't offer access to higher level courses.
AP stats is a math class as much as Economics or Physics is math class -- a little bit. [/quote]

To say AP statistics is not a math class betrays  a bizarre mix of ignorance and arrogance. Or to say it’s for weak schools or students, just look up the syllabus before making up these silly comments that don’t help anyone in the thread and are only misplaced bragging meant to gratify your ego.

It’s fine if your child doesn’t have an interest in Statistics, but it’s in poor taste to belittle the ones who do.[/quote]
