Has anyone taken PH 150A?

<p>I'm signed up for it this semester but am contemplating dropping it because I haven't taken statistics yet (even in high school). Is it completely necessary or would I be okay without it?</p>

<p>The class is easy, but you might need some statistics background. I think you are allowed to take stats concurrently along with the class.</p>

<p>Thanks for replying! Do you think it’s something I can learn on my own? I can’t fit stats into my schedule this semester.</p>

<p>if its any consolation, i tool stats 2 a while back but I remember practically nothing-so were in the same boat.</p>

<p>haha if you drop, i finally get off the waitlist ;)</p>

<p>It’s not a big deal. When I took it last year though, they did checked everyone’s transcript or something to make sure you took/are taking stats.</p>

<p>For reals? They check? I guess I gotta find a back-up class.</p>

<p>Do you know how long it takes them to check you for the stats req?</p>

<p>I never formally took a stats course, I learned all the stats I know independently through a research project with an epi prof here. </p>

<p>Should I wait and see if they’ll kick me out of the class anyways, or should I just try to replace it with another class now?</p>
