I have a question regarding my mathematical background and its readiness for studying Probability and Statistics. I have completed Algebra $1$, Geometry, Algebra $2$, and Linear Algebra (half done).
After completing Linear Algebra, I want to dive into Probability and Statistics (skipping calculus for now). However, I am uncertain whether my current foundation is sufficient to grasp the concepts presented in Probability and Statistics.
Please advise me on whether I am adequately prepared to begin studying Probability and Statistics at this stage? Should I expect to encounter any significant challenges due to my background? Or should I start calculus first then Probability and Statistics?.
The book I choose for Probability and Statistics are:
Probability and Statistics by Morris H. DeGroot, Mark J. Schervish https://www.amazon.com/Probability-Statistics-4th-Morris-DeGroot/dp/0321500466
Introduction to Probability and Statistics by William Mendenhall, Robert J. Beaver, Barbara M. Beaver https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Probability-Statistics-William-Mendenhall/dp/1133103758
Recommendations for resources for Probability and Statistics would be appreciated.
