Read it so I could help my friend with his statistics course (I had last took mine in 2009/2010?) and I needed a refresher for a few topics before I could break it down. It was a pretty decent book, though the one I used for undergrad was slightly better (maybe because my professor wrote the book so it clicked in combination with his lectures). ( )
