How to Calculate Standard Deviation

[@aprilmueller6518]

I can't believe that I just learned and understood how to calculate standard deviation in under 5 minutes. 1 professor, 2 TAs, and 3 math tutors could not do it over a 3 week period. I wish you happiness, health, and prosperity forever. Thank you.

[@mavericktheace]

I know, right?! The ability to teach is not a common one :(

[@iam_buch_a]

you can say that again!!!

[@caglarbulgay2751]

I mean, that is what caused you to come over here and learn it by youself right? Your tutors achieved the goal of making you do what they wanted you to do.

[@stupidcanvas]

lol

[@MrSmellySmell]

Even under 4 minutes! But yes this is an excellent instructional video

[@Simonebethename]

Dude bless your soul..I literally cried for like 30 minutes because this stats class seems so hard and its the one class left to get my degree...I watched this video and did a practice problem and got it right...by the way, this is my third try at this stats class and until now have I felt any type of understanding...I wish you could train teachers and professors on how to teach math... Bless you!

[@mumiscrunk]

Thank you for such a kind comment. Best of luck with your stats class!

[@andrewtrow1]

@@mumiscrunk please do more , I'm a visual learner and abysmal at basic math . There's no help at all for people like me because visualisations aren't that common , it's usually just someone trying to explain it mathematically and to me that's just as hard 😭. Thanks so much for this and the previous video explaining what s.d is

[@tahneeeaton9963]

Simone, I felt this in my soul. Liberal Arts math is killing me.

[@blackjesus9641]

Lmao I didn't understand this after two years of high school, and it only took you 2 youtube videos to explain it properly. Well done!

[@leeannechan2211]

I wish I was taught mathematics the way you have presented here. I'm pretty sure I would have aced every test if the teachers had taken the initiative to clearly and interactively explain everything like you. Amazing video Jeremy - thank you sincerely!

[@onkarbobade5272]

We need more and more teachers like you. What an easy explanation.

[@ninemilliondollars]

I watched your other video on "Standard Deviation - Explained and Visualized," but really needed this one which helped a lot. One good example related to practical every day life is determining the standard deviation of how much I spend on lunch every day. This will help me plan my budget. Thanks.

[@josephmathew12]

I second that. I followed your trail and had to come to the second video to understand the first.

[@genie1568]

I don't know if this will help but in order to memorize the sequence of operations, I came up of an acronym: MD SMR or you could pronounce it as "Mad Summer" where... M=Mean D=Difference S=Square M=Mean (again) R=Root

[@ashleyklein9822]

Totally going to use that-- thanks for sharing!

[@josephmathew12]

A Madsummer for me. 👍

[@elbaymammadyarov8120]

when we find square we do not divide it by mean, divide it by number of values. madsumder)

[@minestar426]

explained it better than my professor ever could. goes to show how low the bar is for college professors, they're basically making their students teach themselves the entire course then acting like they contributed to student comprehension

[@wurraola]

‼️

[@pearlvictoriagosiame7157]

Truly speaking the way you explain statistics is easy to understand and you're the first person I've ever heard explain it in such an early digestible way. Thank you for that.

[@debbiej8231]

My only option was to take stats as an online class at my school. This literally explained in less than 5 minutes what I've been trying to learn in the last half hour! Thank you so much for the simplification and visual explanations!

[@nadiaclayton429]

OMG Thank you, I have been agonising over this for ages!!!!!!It has finally clicked.

[@Asimoriisms]

Lmao my whole week summed up in less than 4 minutes. Thanks for this

[@Cheesecake99YearsAgo]

0:52 Calculate Mean 1:10 Subtract the mean from each data point 1:32 Square each difference 1:57 Calculate the Mean of the Squares 2:12 Take the square root

[@matrixmirage2148]

Thank you very much, I love you man! It's a damn shame our teachers don't provide real-life examples like this: it's very hard to grasp the concept without them

[@Nades-uv7wj]

gosh you rock, I have my midterms and Im useless at statistics. Youve just complete a weeks work in less than 15 minutes with me taking breaks to write. Thank you. You really are brilliant. Thank you

[@thearchersb]

This is the best and simplest explanation of standard deviation in the whole universe.

[@bigegorn]

You may have saved my life with this video. I’m taking Statistics and am on the verge of tears. Thanks so much !!

[@TheJojoletta]

totally worth watching...no need lengthy explanation from mumbling narrator..this is clean cut and to the point easy to understand like 1,2,3 thank you very much!

[@alejandrorubio_]

This is an incredible explanation. Thanks for not only breaking it down, but summarizing it at the end! Awesome video!!

[@NadiraUdugama]

I just couldn't understand the standard deviation. Watched so many tutorials but couldn't understand it! Thank you so much, your video was so useful, and simple to understand! Well done!

[@chasadisum]

Mr Jeremy-this is the best explanation ever i encountered , my search is finished today. Finally i understood the logic of subtracting squaring , square rooting . now i don't need to remember the formula for SD. So thank you

[@thewolfkiba]

I'm studying for a licensure exam, reading the textbook, and this video showed how to do the standard deviation so easily. Thank you so much!

[@Livs_life09]

man i sat thru 2 hrs of class tryna learn this and just could not (and im somehow top of year 11s) and then came home and watched this and understood it easily tysm 🙏🙏

[@SteveFrenchWoodNStuff]

Thank you! NOW I get what an SD is. I just watched another video that "explained and visualized" standard deviation (I think it may have been one of your videos) without explaining it at all; it only explained the usage. And the video left me just as puzzled afterwards as I was before. But now I get it!

[@mumiscrunk]

Didn't see this comment when I posted the link to this video. Glad it helped and thanks for the feedback.

[@PaulLepCooking]

i followed your same path and read both comments lol.

[@suzy3799]

YES THANK YOU SO MUCH, honestly first time taking AP class as a senior and I couldn't be any more relieved

[@StopSelfDoubting]

I watched about 4 videos explaining this. Your video, by far sir, explained this so well which made it easier to understand. Thank you so much.

[@everydaynoob1]

I missed this part in class when I went to the restroom and didn't want to ask because I'm dum so I am very thankful for this you saved me

[@a.c.n.9421]

OOOOOMG!!!!! O.M.G!!! You're the best!!! I have been trying to understand this for 4 days now non-stop and in less than 4 mins, you've made my life so simple! THANK YOU! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

[@jenthenomad]

This was so helpful! I've been trying to learn this concept for days now... The animation and the speed of your explanation makes it click.

[@michaelb9491]

Thank you. Simply explained. I watched a bunch of videos that left me wondering if I would ever figure this out. Thanks again. I hope you have more videos.

[@optimuspussnboots]

This has to be the best channel ever actually explains so good and great, I was so confused before dis and I have a test tw and dis helped me so sooo much Thank You you are so a underrated channel af

[@akatsuki5289]

I never heard of any of this stuff but I understood it right off the bat. You explained that very well! :)

[@kelvinsmith4283]

I am teaching this concept today to my summer school 8th graders...Excellent video!

[@feleciapartman7615]

Just goes to show you that Universities make things so complicated! Thanks for making this much easier!

[@aubreycamachomd5717]

Helping my kids with STATs. This video is absolutely excellent.

[@flg7412]

This was such a simple way to explain SD and normal distribution. Wow, thank you so much!!

[@drcupidlucid]

Jeremy Jones, you are a genius, loved this video. You have excellent teaching skills.

[@MuhammadKhaan]

Best stats teacher I have ever seen. Thank you

[@ecb1979]

Saving this. My Uni made this so much more complicated than was necessary.

[@Reme873]

Ur animation is very helpful along with your style/method of explaining.

[@cook-music]

This is the best Standard Dev video I've seen. Thanks!

[@harisjoseph117]

Amazing teaching. God Bless you more dear Jeremy.❤

[@AnnEspinoza]

Sooooo much better than the last 2 videos on this subject. Thank you!

[@karengonzalez2219]

So much better than my stats professor. I hope you live a long and healthy life !

[@561Aloha]

awesome stuff!! learning data science for school, 6 years later and this video explains so clearly

[@chevydude658]

Very useful video. I've had the flu for four days and I've missed a chunk of my class! You have really helped me with this video.

[@meticulousdiva2725]

Thanks for making your explanation/directions/steps simple.

[@elliej4161]

My teacher has been teaching us this for a few days and tomorrow I have a quiz on it. I think I'll do good now

[@donbrandinelli7785]

really well illustrated and explained

[@marianarodriguez-gn5kh]

Omg this class is gonna kick my @$$!! This videos are so helpful..i just stared yesterday and am already confused ..not a math person at all

[@hustlehealththenwealth9966]

♨️So clear and concise you’ve made everything so easily digestible for my mind, Thank you.🌺

[@wendymaryswart1340]

why was i so stressed about this? this is three weeks of stress for my exams gone after less than a 4 minute video

[@tatianaskapcova7761]

Simple and very easy to understand! Well done!

[@rozumum1552]

I recall doing this in my 1st year of uni. But I did not know what was for what at that time. Thanks!

[@babyjohno9328]

Have a test over this concept next class, glad I could learn it in time, appreciate it

[@icecoldbabydoll85]

Thank you, I am preparing for my college math finals and this 'always' confuses me. You explained it well and the cartoon is cute and helps it be appealing. Thank you, wish me luck. btw- im subscribing

[@Nmgmgrand]

WOW you made this so easy to understand! Thank you so much!

Definitely just got me a few more marks for Monday's AS Maths mock!! thank you so so much

[@jhonjames2673]

Please reply I need help I want to know the relation between standard deviation and normal distribution. Is the standard deviation only calculated when the data is normally distributed?

[@goofyduckmouse2263]

Thanks Jeremy! Good explanation!

[@fa19906]

These are excellent. Hope to see more!

[@mkmunazza7364]

Thank you Sir ....this video is really informative and clear all concept about standard deviation.

[@paulinacoffin5704]

Very easy to follow video! Also, I love the panda bears. :3

[@sbarron9]

Jeremy -- Thank you, this is great! On your last slide you could use the word mean and the initials SD to get around the issue of mixing sample notation and population notation. I agree with your choice to use lowercase n and to stay focused on the idea of a standard deviation instead of details about n, N or n-1. Your sentence about n-1 says "Keep in mind that there is a similar formula that divides by n-1: That formula is used when you only have data for a sample of the population." I think that is fine, but another alternative would be to say: "Keep in mind that there is a similar formula that divides by n-1: That formula is used when you are using the data you have to estimate values for a larger population."

[@mundheral.askari3450]

This a great/simplified video, Thank you sooo much

[@jonathanl7204]

Wow. Thanks. This example is so simple to understand

[@SonOfAGlitch19]

thank you so much, would definitely still be stressing over using various formulas if I hadn't stopped for a few minutes and watched this video

[@Nocturne22]

Thank you for making this so easy to understand, even if when you said "now the next step" for a fifth time made me scream "OH COME ON!"
