Year 1: A3 – Probability
A3.1 Probability
Step One:
Learn
This is the first of three videos on Year 1 probability taken from the Statistics side of the A level course. It recaps basic probability but then uses that to explain the concepts of mutually exclusive and independent events.
The second video in the series on probability. This video looks at using venn diagrams and set notation to describe and solve probability problems.

A3.2 Discrete random variables
Step One:
Learn
In this video on probability we look at discrete random variables and how to describe a situation as a probability distribution function. We then move on to problem solving with random variables making use of the sum of probabilities being 1.
This quick video takes a look at the simplest of probability distributions – the uniform distribution.
