for those who care..

i know kung fu stats..

i'm supposed to be studying for my stat final tomorrow. however, i do not feel like studying sampling errors, confidence intervals, and calculating random sample sizes at the moment. therefore, i have wasted 15 minutes of my life applying statistics to my life - specifically, i did some statistical assessments of my clinical experience reports. summaries of my findings follow:

• out of fourteen (14) fifty (50) point weekly clinical experience reports:
• the mean grade was 46.2/50
  
• the median grade was 46.5/50
  
• there was no true mode
• the range of variation was 4 points
  
• when factoring in the grade on my final clinical experience report (93.5/100), my overall grade based solely on clinical experience reports is 92.5%
• on my final clinical experience report (including 24 individual notes, such as progress notes and summaries of information and skills acquired during the semester):
  
• total pages written: 97
• mean pages written for individual notes: 4
• median value for pages written for individual notes: 4
  
• mode value for pages written for individual notes: 2
• range of variation: 10 pages

as you can clearly see, i have lost my marbles know stats. =p i think, however, that i should now go and do some *real* studying for my stat final. do pray for me. only 2 more finals to go (including stat), then i'm FREE!! yea!!! =)
