As you prepare for your second midterm exam on Nov. 8, make sure that you have gone through the two practice exams they have provided you in the Resources section of Stats Portal. They will give you a very good idea of what your exam will be like.
Here is a
link where you can download my solutions to those Practice Exams: Here are some questions from the Smiley Cheng Multiple-Choice Problem Set
book for Stat 1000 if you have it. This book is now out-of-print, so don't worry about it if you don't have a copy. Personally, I no longer think it is necessary to get this book, as the exams have changed so much over the years, but, if you have done all the other homework and practice I suggest, and just want more practice, go for it.
I go through them in reverse order since the more recent exams are probably more like the questions you will
see. Since most of the questions are fine to look at, I will just tell you what questions to omit instead. Do note that I provide the solutions to these exams in Appendices C and D of my book (Volumes 1 and 2, respectively), but not the questions! You must have the Cheng book to see the questions.
In the Smiley Cheng book, you can first look at the questions I told you to omit from the midterms when you were preparing for the first
midterm exam. Here is the link to the email I sent at that time. Now, be sure to do all the questions I told you to OMIT at that time.
Note that solutions for these final exams are in Appendix D of my Basic Statistics 1 book (midterms are in volume 1, finals are in volume 2). If you have an older edition of my book, the solutions to the midterms may be in a different appendix, and you may be missing solutions to the more recent exams.
Try doing two exams in 2 hours maximum to practise your timing. Keep an eye on your
time. Do two exams and see how long you took. If it took more than two hours, you know you need to improve. Treat these as exams. Do not stop for a break, do not use outside aids other than your calculator and statistical tables. If you have trouble, skip the question. Only once you have completed two exams, mark yourself and learn from your mistakes.
