Guys! I am going nuts with this probability questions in the destroyer.... some are really simple and others not! I need help using these formulas for random and ordered events problems....

Chad covers it pretty well in his QR videos. Do you have Chads?

You are not the only one my friend.

Honestly, probability questions are the easiest if you watch Chad's 20 minute probability video. The shortcut he uses is freakin' EPIC.

I am glad UCSD1984, you are getting the hang of it.

Everybody is different. I have never taken any type of statistics class in my life so I am NOT so good at it.(I have yet to watch CHAD's) However, throw me any trig and algebra type of problems and I can solve them pretty quick.

IMO, the hard part about probability is translating the problems into numbers and variables.

So I bought QR chad... it's pretty good except it's very simple... Have you seen the questions on practice test 12 in destroyer???? They are just so difficult for me.... It is just me or the last 2 tests are just difficult????

Just tried doing practice test #3 by timing myself and got destroyed lol. Only got 16 out of 40 correct. They seriously need to extend the time. I feel that you are NOT even allowed to think on this section. Either you know it or you don't.

You're right but if you practice, 45 minutes is definitely doable after doing a lot of problems. Even in word problems, you know what is expected and gonna know how to set it up right away.

I was thrown off a lot because I encountered so many word problems than I would've liked, but unless you run into these versions - 45 minutes should be sufficient. Just practice!

You've taken the DAT right? Was the math portion very close to the Math Destroyer? I feel like a lot of the word problems are worded to confuse you lol. I hope the real test won't be this tricky.
