Question 315567
It's NOT random or systematic, since she is only asking her friends.  It is defintely NOT stratified, since she is not identifying different "stratas" or groupings.  I never heard of convenience sampling, although that sounds good since her friends are "convenient" to her.  I might be wrong on this, but I think her friends constitute a "cluster".  I would say it's either c) or e), but I think it is e).  Why don't you do a Google search for "Convenience sampling" and see if there is such a thing!!
