May 20 ANOVA, ANCOVA etc.The last 2 days were spent attending a Multivariate Analysis trainning at SPSS. I was never a statistics person but I thought I should attend this as it will be useful in my work needs.
As it turns out, almost everyone at the class was an academician or someone relating to the medical profession. My colleague and I were the only ones who came from Marketing. Everyone was so serious about the examples and everyone wanted perfection. I was thinking, if we applied this precision in Market Research, we would not have gotten anything done!
I discovered that there are terms which I have never heard of and statistician whose names I could not pronounce and all those baffling formulas. Wah! I was so glad I did not pursue Statistics as a Masters degree, I would have been failing all the way!!
Being here for 2 days reaffirm my belief in data - You can make it say anything you want!! |
