A professor in the MIS department of a business school claims that there is much more variability in the final exam scores of students taking the introductory MIS course as a requirement than for students taking the course as part of their majors. Random samples of 10 introductory non- MIS students and 10 MIS majors are taken from the professor's class rosters. The mean score of the non-MIS students sampled was 65 with a variance of 210.2. The average score of the MIS majors sampled was 80 with a variance of 36.5. At the .05 level of significance is there evidence to support the professor's claim that the variability of scores is higher for the non-MIS students than for the MIS majors?
