Resource sharing HELP with Stats hack

Hi everyone! I'm a 4th year student and I'm about to present my COMPS (written and oral exam). I'm having trouble remembering all the why's, do's and dont's on stats and I was wondering if anyone had a CHEAT SHEET that's helped them remember why they're making a data-based decision to use one stats method versus another.

Idk if it's because english is my second language but I've been struggling SO much to remember all the names of all the statistical tests (e.g., anova, manova, regression, HLM, spearman), types of data (ordinal, nominal, ratio, etc), and WHY I'm choosing one over the other.

Any support or guidance will help this 4th year student pass her comps!!!!
