Yes... stats isn't exactly my favourite course either, but it REALLY helps when you have to read journal articles and actually understand what they're talking about in their results sections! it is too bad you're taking it DE... I actually had a really good experience with my stats prof/class, and though at the time i wasn't too thrilled about having to take math in an arts program, it actually is really important.
and yes Kim, lol SPSS... ahh! That program was so confusing at first!
