About this course

Prepare for ATSWA Part II paper 2.3 (Quantitative Analysis) on the current syllabus. Study each syllabus area in plain English with worked Nigerian examples, then practise multiple-choice, fill-in and written questions, review flashcards and sit timed mock exams. Skillnaija is not affiliated with or endorsed by ICAN or the Association of Accountancy Bodies in West Africa (ABWA), which runs the ATSWA scheme.

Every statistic you will compute in this paper starts with data that someone collected, sampled and arranged. Section A regularly tests the terms (qualitative data, quota sampling, ogive), and at work an accounting technician who can draw a clean table or chart turns a pile of figures into something a manager can act on.
