5 Thoughts Everyone Has In Their Elementary Statistics Class

As a part of my department's requirements, I have to take an Elementary Statistics class in order to receive a NYS initial teaching certification. Since I happen to want that certification, guess who's enrolled in MTH 207-Elementary Statistics? Yup, you guessed it! This girl!

Math is kind of weird for me because I actually really enjoy the abstract reasoning of it, it seems to randomly make sense in my mind (probably because I'm weird). Nonetheless, this class is tough! Have you ever been in a class and thought to yourself, "Yeah, I've got this. It totally makes sense". And then, when you're working on the homework later that night you understand absolutely nothing?I know the feeling!

My professor knows me very well because I've been to his office at least ten times already and we are constantly emailing each other. Thank goodness for patient and kind professors!

Here are five memes that are quite possibly the most accurate representations of my relationship with my stats class:


1. That iconic moment when Ross said, "I'm fine".

This is usually the response I give to people after my stats class is over on Monday, Wednesday, & F.riday I am really trying to hold it together but I just can't. Here comes the squeaky voice.

2. Waiting to go into my professor's office and prefacing the meeting by saying the following:

3. Don't forget to sketch graphs!

We've been assigned three homework assignments thus far and it's week seven but each assignment is sneaky. It looks like it'll be short and sweet but really, each question has between 3 and 6 parts so it's actually going to consume the rest of your week (and life).

4. Just to be clear, I'm Woody and Buzz is my professor.

5. Nothing is stored in my brain!

This is surely the truth! It makes sense in class but come test day, nothing is stored in my brain! Thanks to my wonderfully kind and down-to-earth professor, we get to have a cheat sheet during the test for special formulas. THANK YOU SIR.


I'll be honest, the class is intimidating and there are so many concepts to learn, but with my professor, it's been a great experience...for now. I'm sure in the next few weeks I will feel differently about all of this.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

For many undergraduates across the nation, the home stretch has begun. Only one more semester remains in our undergraduate career. Oh, the places we will go! For the majority of college seniors, this is simultaneously the best and worst year out of the past four and here’s why.

1. The classes you are taking are actually difficult.

A schedule full of easy pottery throwing and film courses is merely a myth on the average campus. With all of those prerequisites for the upper-level courses and the never-ending battle you fight each year during registration for limited class seats, senior year brings with it the ability to register for the final courses you need to fulfill your major. Yet, these are not the easy entry level courses. These are the comprehensive, end of major, capstone courses designed to apply the knowledge from all your previous courses, usually in the form of an extensive research paper or engaged learning project. The upside is you actually probably really enjoy these classes but alas there is no room for slackers here.
