Null hypothesis: The results are due to chance. This is the hypothesis you want to reject, since you are usually looking for an effect rather than looking for no effect. Thanks, Yolanda and Peggy!

Null hypothesis: The results are due to chance. This is the hypothesis you want to reject, since you are usually looking for an effect rather than looking for no effect. Thanks, Yolanda and Peggy!
Type I error: In reality, there is no effect, but you conclude that the results exceed chance level.

Some Problems
• If z = 1, what % of the normal curve lies above it? Below it?
• If z = -1.7, what % of the normal curve lies below it?
• What % of the curve lies between z = -.75 and z = .75?
• What is the z-score such that only 5% of the curve lies above it?
• In the SAT with µ=500 and =100, what % of the population do you expect to score above 600? Above 750?

GMAT Problem
from the Financial Times
What is the percentile rank of the mean GMAT score for Stanford? For Chicago? How would you state the difference between Stanford and Chicago? How would you characterize the difference between Stanford and Carnegie Mellon?
