Course Requirements During the exam: � You must be able to use a scientific calculator equipped with statistical formulas for correlation and regression. � You will have to use copies of statistical tables. � You may use any other textbook. � � You cannot use laptops, cameras, mobile phones, and any other means of communications. You must show did you find your results – it is not acceptable to write only numerical answers. In case you use a scientific calculator write all formulas used for deriving the answers.
