Placement Tests

Planning on taking introductory courses at the Institute, but not sure if you need to start at the beginning?  Review the course description for each of our introductory statistics courses and estimate which best matches your level, then take the placement test for that course. If you get all or almost all the questions correct, move on and take the next test.

If you have already taken statistics before and think you don't need to start at the beginning or need to verify that you're adequately prepared for the more advanced statistical courses, try this single placement test.

If you score 85% or higher, congratulations, you can comfortably opt out of the Institute's whole introductory statistics sequence where it is listed as prerequiste. To be even better prepared for  intermediate and advanced courses, we recommend taking one or more of these important foundational courses:

• Introduction to Statistical Modeling
• Introduction to Resampling Methods
• Calculus Review
• Matrix Algebra Review
• Regression Analysis
