Chances of getting admitted in 1 school = 0.05
Chances of getting admitted in either of 2 schools = 0.05 + 0.05 = 0.1
Thus, Chances of getting admitted in either of n schools = n x 0.05 = 0.95
Thus, n = 19.
Thus if I want my chances to be admitted to at least one of the schools to be above 0.95, I need to apply to 19 schools
11, (5pt) Suppose you are applying to graduate schools. Your chances to be admitted to each...
Part V: Applying for a Scholarship or Grant Now that you have compiled a list of scholarships, it's time to begin thinking about applying for them. 7. Pick one of the scholarships or grants from your list above that you want to apply for. 8. Create a "Plan of Action" below for that scholarship or grant. This should be a list of steps you need to take starting now to successfully apply. Be as detailed as possible and make sure...
Revised 4-28-16 Options for Assignment 7 Exploring Graduate School (and some professional schools) One main purpose of Assignment 7 is to introduce you to graduate school. Graduate school is something most students have heard of but do not know much about. Students tend to think it is: a) just more "schooling" and b) probably very costly. Neither is necessarily true. In fact, graduate work is very different than undergraduate work and it can be largely cost-free. Some students will also...
You want to take a cruise vacation 5 years from now when you complete graduate school. You estimate that you will need $5,000 when you complete graduate school to pay for the cruise. If you can earn 5.9% interest on your deposits, how much would you have to deposit today to be able to pay for the cruise when you graduate? Round your answer to 2 decimals. For example, $100.12.
3. Suppose my graph theory class has 12 different students, of which 6 are under- grads and 6 are graduate students. (a). How many ways can I choose at least 4 but no more than 8 of my students to take a field trip to the library? (b). I want to repeat part (a), but I want to be sure to take at least 2 undergrads. (c). I have 3 different final projects for them to work on (projects A,...
Describe the major themes and concepts from each of the five major schools of though Describe your school of thought, being specific about the subject matter you would like to work on. Integrate concepts from the major psychological schools of thought in the history of psychology. Apply the theory you created above to a case example you developed. Explain how integrating your theory would benefit the created case study.
table 2.73 calculate the mean median standard deviation the first quartile the third quartile and the Iqr round to one decimal place 95. 75% of all years have an FTES: a. at or below: b. at or above: 96. The population standard deviation = 97. What percent of the FTES were from 528.5 to 1447.5? How do you know? 98. What is the IQR? What does the IQR represent? 99. How many standard deviations away from the mean is the...
You are a researcher working for an educational research firm. Your firm was asked to conduct a satisfaction survey among the parents of students attending the School District public schools. Your boss has asked you to develop a sampling design for this survey. For this survey, you are asked to select a representative sample of parents. When you answer the questions, keep the following in mind: Assume that you have unlimited authority to access all the information you may need...
Suppose there is a McDonald's next to your school and you want to estimate the proportion, p of all people at your school who go to McDonald's on a typical school day. (a) If you had no preliminary estimate for p. how many people should you include in a random sample to be 85% sure that the estimate will be within a distance of 0.05 from p? Make sure to show the formula with the numbers plugged in. (b) Complete...

Suppose that you want to run a 23 factorial design. The variance of an individual observation is expected to be about 4. Suppose that you want the length of a 95 percent confidence interval on any effect to be less than or equal to 1.5. How many replicates of the design do you need to run?
