Triola's text is very hard to follow, there are no explanations or step by step, how to guides- if there are they tend to assume and skip over steps. I found it very hard to understand and had to use other sources to get through the problems. Thankfully I only needed it for an 8 week course because to have it all semester would have been hard.

Great for Studying!
Great book for on-line class! It includes Positive and Negative z-scores, graphs on finding P-Values, Hypothesis Tests:wording of final conclusions, more charts than you could possibly need and a Chi-Square distribution table and a t-distribution table.
Everything you could possibly need you will find in this book!

Excel was a Blessing
Excel made statistics so much easier. This book was very helpful, even for a math idiot like myself.
