Abstract: 

The purpose of this article is: 1) to consider the value of statistics in the secondary school curriculum; 2) to present evidence assessing the current levels of preparation in statistics with which students enter college; and 3) to determine, through statistical analysis, factors that may be associated with the secondary school preparation level of students in statistics.
