what type of questions should be preferred?tell me
 

i want information about stats paper

What information do you want?

if you look at past papers , Walpole's "Statistics for engineers and scientists" is their favourite book .. Solve every relevant example from the book

please suggest me................
i can well understand and solve the questions of probablity and regression etc.
means if i am given with a problem , using the formulas i can reach the exact answer. but how these formulas / athematical models are derived i can not understand. i tried to understand it from sher Muhammad book, but ended in my mind blank and my mood agressive. what you people suggest, is i enough to solve question or should i have grip on derivation of these formulas??:))

it would be better to have grip over important derivation specially of those which have been repeated in previous papers e.g. equating any probability model (formula) to 1. In sher Muhammad ch's book, the writer has adopted very direct method to derive such formulas. So, it would be better to consult F.A and F.Sc stats books for these derivation.

Are derivations included? What about very complex derivations? Have they been asked in past examinations? And also, what about moment generating functions etc? These things are covered very briefly in university courses. Are supposed to over them our selves?

Not all proves and derivation.. if u consult past papers, you will come to know that derivation of discrete probability distributions and equating them to ! have been repeated in past papers. moment generation function is relatively complex and was asked in any previous paper (i guess in 2010) but i do not think so it should be included in the paper coz moments are not included in syllabus.

Can you please tell me the detailed syllabus?
