rufi | sample is the subset of populaion |
bdaguy | Wording is definitely designed to trip you up. If you have a population that you wish to sample from and you end up sampling all of those things (as described above), your sample = population. For the purpose of the exam, if you gather data on everything that can be sampled, you have a "population". Anything less is a "sample". |
soarer1 | "All" = population |
mordja | Here is praying for at least a few of these gimmes on the exam |
2014 | sample is a kid of population |

I am using your study notes and I know of at least 5 other friends of mine who used it and passed the exam last Dec. Keep up your great work!
