Most students, with a strong mathematics background and previous exposure to probability and inference, should take the half-semester version of GR5203 and GR5204.
The half-semester courses are intensive courses. They move twice as fast, so it is important to keep up. If you find that you are having academic difficulties, be certain to reach out to your instructor, TA, and Faculty Adviser as soon as possible.
A self-assesment test is sent to all incoming students. Use this to determine if you should make preparations during the summer. You will receive information via email about the following opportunities:
- The Math Refresher Review (Core Math for Statistics)
- The MA Statistics Bootcamp
- The Probability Preview
If concerns remain about taking the half-semester courses, then consult with your Faculty Adviser. Advisers will be assigned in August. Keep reading the emails to find out when.
