We wish to compare the GPAs of male and female Eberly College of Science undergraduates. We want to see if there is a difference in the GPAs for the two groups of students. The computer output from our analysis is below:

Two-Sample T-Test and CI: GPA, Gender


Gender N Mean StDev SE Mean
Female 126 3.277 0.469 0.042
Male 99 3.205 0.455 0.046


Difference = mu (Female) - mu (Male)
Estimate for difference: 0.071371
95% CI for difference: (-0.051222, 0.193964)
T-Test of difference = 0 (vs not =): T-Value = 1.15 P-Value = 0.252
