Develop probability skills through basic probability rules, contingency tables, conditional probability, and independence concepts. Study discrete random variables, probability distributions, binomial and Poisson distributions, and the normal distribution. Understand sampling distributions and the Central Limit Theorem for sample means. Apply statistical inference techniques including confidence intervals and hypothesis testing for single population means and proportions. Compare two population means using various methods and perform paired t-tests.
