why are probability and statistics so hard?

it isn’t just you - there are fundamental psychological reasons why we find probability so hard, and in understanding why they are hard, we can make them a little easier

I just put my mechanical pencil through about 30 pages of my statistics book and chucked it across the room and put a hole in the wall. I think I hate statistics. I've never felt so dumb in my life.

What was it major in college

"Your"

[@navajohnny76]

Engineering. I must have been tired. It ended up being my favorite class.

[@telekoadmasu]

Really!! I am in engineering right now(senior last semester), have u continued with engineering or changed to statistics after college? Just asking cuz I am getting bored in engineering and thinking about changing

[@navajohnny76]

@@telekoadmasu I plan on staying, but decided to get my journeyman for machining to get my feet wet in the industry. I'll pick up where I left off when I'm done with this.

I am a math major and i always find probability super harder than Algebra, Analysis, Number theory

Thank you Alex! I guess one of the reasons why the world looks exceedingly complex is because people do not explain why we do the things we do.
