  1. Thanks for the advice. My classes start at the end of August. However I'm now graduating from a trimester school, so my stats course was... Well, we didn't cover a lot of that stuff (I don't think). We mainly replicated what a professor did for a final project. Still, I understand that I should probably take stats. I just don't know how I'm going to stay sane. My only coping strategy is video games. I have a relationship to maintain but at least we'll be living together. Things are just scary at this point.
  2. Well I aim to get my master's in sociology and, since that isn't worth much probably on its own, go for a PhD. Then I suppose be a professor.
  3. Hello all, I have recently been accepted to the Master's Program in sociology at Loyola University Chicago. They strongly reccommend/require a new master's student to take a course in theory, as well as one called "the logic of sociological inquiry," which seems to deal with methods. They say you can pick one elective, but due to scheduling and limited options, only 2 seem possible. One is statistical methods analysis I which honestly intimidates me a little. I took a basic statistics course in undergrad but this sounds much more advanced: "After a review of bivariate regression and cross-tabular analysis, the course provides an extended treatment of the general linear model. Topics include model construction, interpretation of results, partitioning of variance, tests of statistical significance and interactions." That does ring some bells, but it still sounds more serious than my psych stats course I took. Anyways, the other course I could take is Family, which I have no particular interest in, but I'd imagine it would be easier than statistical methods analysis. It's not that I want this all to be easy, it's that I don't want to be blown away my first term. I'm a hard worker with a 3.97 GPA graduating from a school with a 25 ACT average, so pretty decent. What I want to know, obviously, is which course I should take--Family or Statistical Methods Analysis I. I know this sounds stupid, but keep in mind I will also be taking theory and methods, and I want to stand out. Does anyone have any advice for me please? Registration needs to be in within a couple days!!! Thanks!
