Introductory StatisticsCornell offers a variety of courses in statistics, but four courses (see table below) are most comparable to the AP statistics curriculum. They are all open to freshmen, and they can be applied to the Arts & Sciences MQR distribution requirement, the CALS quantitative literacy requirement, and the mathematics requirement for the biology major. Students should consult their faculty advisors and/or major departments for help in choosing among them. Those who are uncertain of their high school math background may benefit from taking MATH 1102 before attempting an introductory statistics course.
What Sets MATH 1710 Apart
Advanced Placement Credit
Transfer CreditThe Mathematics Department will approve an introductory statistics course only if it is a satisfactory equivalent to MATH 1710. (See Transferring Credit from Another Institution.) Statistics courses taken from social science departments (such as psychology or sociology) must be approved by the corresponding social science department at Cornell. More Applied or In-Depth CoursesStudents can take either of the following applied (specialized) courses without losing AP credit:
Students who have had some calculus and are more interested in the mathematical background of statistics, including probability, may take the following without loss of AP credit:
