This is crazy helpful, even working in data analytics every day (from a business perspective) I still learned some new things!

I have an MPH degree in Epidemiology and this is a perfect review of concepts, even for me! Biostatistics or statistics in general can be overwhelming with all the concepts and rules but this very helpful, especially if you are starting or just want to understand the prevalent topics of today. Good job and will wait for more!

Right now I am doing Vocational Training on Data Science and I hope this series will help me get the fundamentals of DS even better.

There’s lot of content on the internet. But the presentation style and content kept me focused. Good stuff. Thanks, Jessica and ASU. Keep’em coming.

I am missing a caution against reviews in the sense that each bakery could have employed family and friends to leave good ratings. Or have generated „false sets of data“ by buying ratings.
Otherwise this is very helpful and a great video!

This is great! I am so excited for this series

[Ennasalin]

truly awesome. It's always great to have a recap of notions that I previously studied at Statistics and Econometrics but applied to the world around us. Those subjects get a bit dry sometimes and highly technical :)

I like how the person ticked that they were left handed, even though they had the pen in their right hand.

[beanjp]

thanks for this content. it's very easy to understand.

Great video - although working on the government-side of FOIA sometimes I wish it was easier to proactively publish information so people didn't need to ask us and wait for the data. Also, I wish the "journalists work for the public good" was more true in 2020 :-(.

Pilots see the world differently. Sheer walls become flanking routes.

[setphaser]

I know most of this stuff but still had trouble keeping up. I hope things like interval will be explained again later with more detail.

I'm waiting for the rest of the playlist 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

I wish she was my professor...

Got dang son.

John Green for President. Love for ASU too

[timothymurphy]

Anyone else see him mark “left handed” while writing with his right hand?

[thecreativecontessa]

I would like to use these courses as a supplement to my boys public education. I would be happy to pay for a study guide and workbook that accompanies both this particular crash course series and all of the crash course series. Is there such a creature available? :-)

[Teja.Theone]

firstly thanks for the new course and its crucial and useful i will do this.secondly jessica you are so gorgeous.

[murphygreen]

This reminds me of Crash Course Statistics

Very good video - but the music chiming in at the end is distracting from the content by being way too loud and annoying!
