Checklist s1

This document is a checklist for a statistics module covering topics like data representation, measures of central tendency and dispersion, probability, and random variables. It lists key statistical concepts and the user's confidence level with each topic, including measures of location like mean, median and mode, measures of dispersion like range and standard deviation, probability concepts, discrete random variables, and the normal distribution. The checklist aims to identify topics the user is less confident with for further review.
