GER1000 Quantitative Reasoning [4MC]Taken in AY18/19 Sem 1
Lecturer: Mr Maurice Chng (different classes have different lecturers) Lecturer clarity: Clear and understandable Class size: ~400 Timeload: OTOT E-lecture weekly + 1x 2hr tut biweekly Webcast: Lectures - E-lectures, Tutorials - No NUSMODS Basically a stats class, but not so heavy on the maths. We analyse experiments and observational studies to see if there's any biases, confounding, things that will skew the results, etc. We have to give a group presentation about a topic from a given topic list. Choose the topic that is short and simple so it's easier to analyse. Luckily my group is on the ball, the group project holds significant weightage. Remember, correlation does not imply causation.
