Statistics and Probability

Overview

Khan Academy’s Statistics and Probability course covers data analysis and inferential statistics at roughly an introductory college/AP Statistics level. Units include analyzing categorical data, displaying and comparing quantitative data, modeling data distributions, exploring bivariate numerical data and study design, probability and random variables, sampling distributions, confidence intervals, and significance tests including chi-square and t-tests.

It suits students who’ve already covered algebra basics and want a structured path through statistics, including South African matric students working on the data handling, probability and statistics sections of NSC Mathematics — though Khan Academy’s sequence and depth, closer to AP Statistics, go beyond the NSC syllabus, so it’s a strong supplementary resource rather than a syllabus-matched course. It’s equally useful for anyone needing a working understanding of statistics for further study or research.

As with all Khan Academy courses, it’s free, self-paced, and built around instructional videos paired with practice exercises, leaving learners able to interpret data, understand probability, and reason through statistical inference.
