This survey was created to discover if there is an equal
distribution of colleges that the North Olmsted High School Senior
Class of 2008 chose to attend in the fall of 2008.
Our sample was drawn form the entire
senior class of 2008 at North Olmsted High School. We chose 50
senior students through a random number generator on MinTab.
Only 37 surveys were returned to us.
Our background research gave us
information to help
students choose the college best for them. We realized that
the college the students choose are not there dream school but it is
the college that fits them best. Our research also found
different factors that played into students choosing their college.
In conclusion,
we
used the Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit test that shows there is not an
equal distribution between the colleges that the North Olmsted High
School Class of 2008 chose to attend in the fall of 2008. The
Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit test shows that the colleges we chose to
list on our survey were not the most popular colleges like we had
thought. |
