Ok, 10.5 hours of Statistics...
Breaks for cigarettes and dinner. I. am. done.

For today, more to be done in the morning, but I can't do another calculation, or I'll go postal. Need sleep!

:)

4. How do you mean 10.5 hours?
Are you taking that many stats hours this semester? Or did you have a major assignment that took that long?

BTW what are you covering right now?

5. From 11 am to 9:30 pm, takehome midterm, Econometrics.
Add to that 3 hours yesterday and 2 the day before. Econometrics. Multivariate regression analysis and model comparison, including logarithmic models and semilog models. Continuous, Dummy, and Interaction variables. Yuck.

6. I had a course in multivariate regression
It was one of my more enjoyable stats classes. Don't know a thing about econometrics though, other than that it's probably stats for economics.

8. Yeah, Advanced Stats for Econ...400 level
Equivalent to the Econometrics class for the Public Policy PhD at my school, which is 600 level.

It is...challenging. I am learning a hell of a lot, and it will help me majorly when I produce my paper in Behavioral Econ (Ind. Study) in the fall, which I will be submitting for publication. I can't wait for summer break. Yikes!
