Working with Statistics and Data

Analyzing Data Sets

Many SAT questions involve interpreting data, finding averages, or understanding spread. Your calculator can quickly find mean, median, mode, and standard deviation.

Steps for Data Entry

  1. Enter data into the calculator's list or stats mode.
  2. Use the '1-Var Stats' or similar function to analyze.
  3. Interpret results for the SAT question.

Beyond the SAT

These tools are used in real-life fields like sports analytics, research, and business forecasting.

Examples

  • Entering test scores and finding the mean with '1-Var Stats.'

  • Calculating standard deviation for a list of SAT practice scores.

In a Nutshell

Analyze data fast—find means and standard deviations in seconds using your calculator.
