Not Normally Distributed, ie. Lots of Skewness and Kurtosis

The graph below shows the errors for the data set I've been analyzing for econometrics. The blue line represents how the errors should look, and the ugly lines that jump all over the place are what they actually look like. This is disappointing; however, the project will go on, and I will get a good grade in my class. So much for everything being perfect.




In other news, the rest of life isn't quite perfect either, but I can't complain. I'm still as excited as ever, and the possibilities for the future are endless. I passed my 16-credit Portuguese exam, so that'll give my GPA a shot in the arm. I'm going to have to update the resume! After all is said and done, I might actually get an internship. Incredible. I tore my last midterm apart. Hard work and preparation always seem to pay off! Now I'm down to a few PowerPoint presentations, some paper revisions and final exams. That's it. That's the entire semester.
