Statistics are included in all areas of life. In the field of health, statistical data collection and analysis of data on chronic diseases and genetic diseases in order to develop appropriate plans and strategies to combat these diseases and reduce their spread. In sports, the science of statistics analyzes the data on athletes in terms of speed, performance and endurance and follow-up effect of stimulant drugs on the performance of players. In pharmacology, the science of statistics collects and analyzes data on the uses of drugs and their effects on human health, which helps in making appropriate decisions about the use of certain drugs before putting them on the market.

In this exam, three topics are of concern, the first topic is about the nature of probability and statistics, which concerns about the types of data, statistical terms, variables and their nature, sampling techniques and methods of study.
