Post Body

Hi,

I am currently a graduate student in biostatistics, who just finished my final for statistical inference (casella and berger chapter 6 to 10).

I got my ass whupped by the final (66), which left me with course average of 82. But I got the final grade of A.

Which got me thinking.. Is it normal for theory heavy classes to kick a lot of people's butt especially during finals? The last midterm average was somewhere around 70's to low 80's.

Did you class usually ace the finals for statistical inference?

I notice that this year's final is much more harder than the previous years?

I feel little dumb after taking that final.
