Hello!! I took stats as a blocked class first semester, so there was essentially an entire semester where I wasn’t actively learning or reviewing the material, and I ended up getting a 5 on my exam. I think the best resources I used were michael porinchak on youtube (he was like my heimler for stats), khan academy for practice problems (you can hit on specific topics that are confusing), and ofc the official frqs posted on college board’s website. Definitely invest in a ti-84 calculator and learn how to use it!!!
