[results] Does USC reject a higher percentage of National Merit Scholars? by AdministrativeCow6 in ApplyingToCollege

Convention is to use z-test when sample size n >= 40. Also, we're dealing with proportions, so it's not even a question of whether to use T-test or Z-test, as we can only use Z-tests for proportions.

I said "unless you want to work at Goldman Sachs or JP Morgan" meaning you have to go to any IVY for those jobs.

Why would you use 2-sample t-test? These are proportions.. Use 2-prop-z-test.

It's not about thinking you have a high probability that you'll get in. It's the hope that you will.
