STUDY GUIDE FOR FINAL EXAM, BA201, FALL 2000

A student who thoroughly understands these exercises, together with those exercises in the assigned homework, should be well prepared for the final exam.

Examples of the concepts include: standard deviation, standard error, population distribution, sampling distribution, critical value, rejection region, p-value, Type I and Type II errors, ANOVA, correlation, Simple Regression, Multiple Regression, coefficient of determination, confidence interval, and prediction interval.
