I've cleared the whole syllabus in ASM. Lesson 16 and on have been troubling though.

Time to work the problems and remember the formulas.

Does anyone know if the normal distribution function is provided in the exam?

Finished going through the ASM lessons today. Should be able to have all of the AB videos finished by the weekend, then it's practice problem season.
