One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Nature and importance of statistical data

Statistical data are observations or measurements collected to describe, explain, or predict phenomena. Mastering its nature—how data are classified, sourced, and measured—enables students to choose appropriate analysis methods and draw valid conclusions, a core requirement of the NUC CCMAS, NBTE, and NCCE exams.
