heyy i know theres a handful of you out there
whats the best way to prepare for the "optional" test? this sub has got me lost and i wouldnt know where to start
due to the lack of lecture notes like stat170 i cant keep up with where he's at and where he's going
so any help guys?

and i know we can bring in anything that would help us to the exam
i always wondered
can you bring in a pass paper? lol

No its a hundred times worse and a hundred times more unstructured


Yes mate you can bring in past papers :) I think, im a hunred per cent sure

And I think for the first optional test all you'll need to know is ONE WAY ANOVA and maybe trend analysis

Know the procedure for overall testing and follow up tests (i.e contrasts)


1. sample value

SS treat/error

MS error/treat

Fobtained

F crit

Draw conclusions

However you need to know what decision rules to use etc

err what was the specific question?

Well to start... you need to know the process... see above post...

Sample value->SS>ms error> Fobtained> compare to F crit> draw conclusions

and pretty much just apply it to every single thing, i.e trend analysis, contrasts, overall testing

There's a whole stuffload you have to know in between though, i.e which decision to use when calculating ur Fcrit (use the table in the blue book, the diagram/with the four boxes) to decide.

Don't bother listening to lectures, waste of time, read the relevant pages of the textbook and the blue book

Know about orthoganality
