This LUBS2575: Statistics and Econometrics, University of Leeds - Final Examination Guide and Notes 2025 is invaluable to teach yourself the module from the first day of class until your last review before the final exam. It helps you learn new material by working through chapters that explain each topic in simple language. Concepts and principles aren't simply named or described in passing, but are explained in detail. You can use these notes as a reference, to understand the module better and improve your grades in the final exam.

The LUBS2575: Statistics and Econometrics module builds upon your introductory statistics knowledge to equip you with intermediate-level statistical techniques and introduce you to fundamental econometrics. This module bridges the gap between statistical theory and real-world applications, providing you with the tools to analyse quantitative problems in social sciences. You'll delve into regression analysis using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), starting with basic assumptions and interpretations of linear models with one variable, then progressing to incorporate multiple variables in multivariate regression. The module concludes by equipping you with the skills to assess the validity of econometric analysis based on OLS, allowing you to interpret research that utilises this approach. By the end, you'll not only grasp core statistical concepts but also be able to recognise their valuable applications in various fields, including accounting, finance, economics, and management.

Main topics to be covered:

Random Variables and Probability Distributions (one and two variables)
Properties of Probability Distributions (expected value, variance, covariance)
Important Probability Distributions (normal distribution, t-distribution, F-distribution, Chi-square distribution)
Samples and Sampling Distributions
Estimation
Hypothesis testing
Confidence intervals
The nature of econometrics
The simple linear regression model and its assumptions
The ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator
