Nobody doubts nowadays that all professionals should be qualified to design an investigation, gather data with previous planning and analyse the results, he also finds indispensable to be able to understand the current scientific literature. To be able to carry out all this he/she should have knowledge of Statistics. In general, it happens that the students or the graduates of some university careers face themselves before a barrier of numbers, formulas, calculations and mathematical reasoning. Statistics is not easy to learn, on the contrary, it is rather difficult. Statistic is a curious amalgam of mathematics, logic and judgement. Although many are put off by the mathematics, the logical processes are often the ones that cause more difficulty (Altman, 1997). In general the problem becomes worse if this happens especially with those whose careers belong to the Health or Biomedical sciences.
