    This study used a chi-squared test to determine if there is a difference in GPA between students who take more humanities, science, art, or math electives. The null hypothesis was that electives do not impact GPA, while the alternative hypothesis stated that GPA differs based on electives. The chi-squared test results showed a value of 12.305, which is less than the critical value of 16.919, so the null hypothesis cannot be rejected - the type of electives a student takes does not significantly impact their GPA.

    Chi-Squared Project

    Research Question: Is there a difference in GPA between

    people who take more humanities, science, art, and math

    electives?
    Hypotheses:
    Null: There is no difference in GPA, no matter what

    electives people take


    Alternative: GPA is not equal between people who take

    more of each elective

    Tables 2

    Discussion and Results


    The observed and expected tables show the values I saw in my

    survey, and the values that I would expect to see. This is a major

    tool I used in order to find if there is a significant difference

    between electives in terms of GPA. The bottom tables are

    collecting the data into one place. In order for these results to be

    significant, the Chi-squared value would need to be greater than

    16.919. My Chi-squared value is 12.305, so there is not a

    significant difference in GPA between different electives.
