AP Statistics: Video Lessons

Elsewhere on this site, Stat Trek offers a free, easy-to-understand AP Statistics tutorial. Consisting of 69 written lessons, that tutorial is designed to help students prepare for and pass the AP Statistics exam.

This course is a video companion to the written tutorial, designed for students who are more comfortable with video than with text. So far, we've produced 44 video lessons, one video lesson for each of the first 43 written lessons from the original AP Statistics tutorial. We're adding videos little by little. Eventually, we intend to have a video for each of the 69 written lessons from the tutorial.
