Not hypergeometric, which is the technique itself, it's been taken out of the course. Probability without replacement is still a viable thing to be tested however, but only to around 3 trials at maximum I'd say. Nothing like 7-8 which they had to do back then since they had hypergeometric. Oh, and to do these, just use tree diagrams I guess. Just decrease the sample sizes/proportions accordingly after each branch.
