Advanced Statistics

The document provides a table of specifications for an Advanced Statistics exam covering several topics: standard normal distribution, central limit theorem, Student's t-distribution, chi-square test of goodness of fit, and hypothesis testing. It outlines the topics, time spent on each, and the breakdown of question types (e.g. remembering, understanding, applying). A sample exam with multiple choice questions follows assessing understanding of concepts like the normal curve, central limit theorem, hypothesis testing procedures, and choosing appropriate statistical tests.
