I am debating between these two courses. I like math but I'm looking for a course that will be easier to get a better mark in, have less of a workload? I have never taken a stats course before so I was wondering if this would affect my ability to do well in stats 2bo3?
Thanks!

both are pretty easy from what i hear. take stats 2b03 if u got friends taking it so u can compare assignment answers. compare answers with the fb group also. tests in stats are easy especially if u go to every class.

Both were very easy but I preferred Stats 2B03. Although Stats 2B03 had mandatory assignments, they were super easy to do well on. The tests were less tricky overall and were easier to prepare for. Stats 2B03 is more straightforward - all tests are MC versus short answer in Math 1LT3.

be careful for the stats MC though, there will be one correct answer, obviously. But, the other answers will be numbers you would get if you were to do the question wrong in a certain way
