It is nice to see a history and development of the study of statistics and the role that it plays in economics, business management, commerce, public administration, medicine, military applications and of course scientific discovery. Thank you very much for the information.

By Edward TEW on 5/3/2021

It will be good if the instructor could explain the application for each of the statistical formulae cited...also unneccesary time is spend explaining simple artimethic sum.

By Shivani Aggarwal on 4/14/2021

If somebody wants to understand the statistics from the very basic then the course is very much suitable

By Ramanujam Pasupuleti on 8/24/2019

Entire lecture is flawless. Only request to the technical team is to shift lecture video no 105 next to 58. Please re-check and do the needful so that it will be continuous for the future learners. Thanks.

I am finding it very useful and practical general knowledge in Statistics begin with. Yes, it is worth the investment.

By Matt McKechnie on 12/8/2017

I felt the course spent a lot of time discussing earlier lessons around mean, mode frequency etc. and then felt very rushed on the correlation, variation and regression analysis which (to me at least) was much more complex. I think more time should have been spent particularly on the regression portion to explain how to apply the equations and some context around when you should use these in the real world, followed by how to interpret results. That section particularly felt like I now know how to calculate the values but I have no better understanding of why I would do that and what it means. Instructor spent too long reading out what was on the screen rather than explaining it. That said, for the price I've certainly learnt something to give me a foundation to go onto additional courses.

Very helpful for IGNOU students who have no regular classes on regular basis or anyone to guide. Very satisfied and would recommend. Thank you sir..

By Umesh Joshi on 10/17/2017

Great Course. Great effort by Raja Sir. He is really working hard to spread the knowledge to every student. I wish him great success in future.

By Andrew Owens on 7/28/2017

I am genuinely grateful for this course as I am looking to use statistics in my professional field. I did 1st year statistics at uni many years ago but was missing a lot of the background, which this course and Raja's patient, careful explanations fill in very well. Course level was well suited to my needs.

The instructor seems to be giving a good introduction to the course contents, but it is a little early to fully rate the course.
