This course repeats material also taught in MAT 114, 115 or 225 and is not open to students who have passed MAT 114, 115 or 225. Taking any of the statistics courses more than once will not earn additional credits and will be noted as a repeat. NOTE: A Graphing Calculator is required: Ti83+, or Ti84+ or equivalent.
