In statistics one must learn to live with uncertainty. That is the most outstanding difference that I found with other math courses. At the beginning of the course I used to grab a formula and simply apply it when I did not understand something. But understanding each statistic and concept that is part of a formula gave me at the same time, a global view of things and how important is a look at detail. I learned not to fear the formulas but I do not have to use them automatically either. I learned that behind those things that I mechanically made when entering Excel data and getting results, I must understand the mechanisms that lead to the results. Finally, probability is nothing more than evaluating all possibilities. Things do not happen just because, there are a lot of situations that had to be given to make it happen
