Post your age/weight here. A poll is impractical as it's a scatterplot, so I would have to do ranges of ages from 8-70 (however old jadinwolf is) as well as corresponding values of weight. Please post.

Most definitely too late... but try give your height as well :(

Your do realise your stats teacher is going to burn you out of you for not taking a random sample. Not randomly selected people, all on atot=prob not good. Then again, not like I never made of stats data. So what kind of test are you going to do, I'm guessing T?

BTW, the AP test really isn't that bad, if you take a class and listen a little, you should get a 5; if you ever have questions just PM me.

there is a relatively diverse population in ATOT, I honestly think. Of course, I'll also be taking data from within my school as well, but this is supplementary. Rather than from all from my high school, or all from ATOT, it's a bit more diversified.

You should do what I did for my stats project. Ask people at a gas station. It's not like they have anything else to do but talk to you. Captive audience ;)

18 out of 41 overweight males b/t the ages of 22 and 89 will receive a failing grade on this Statistics project 44% of the time.

Sucks to be you.

There's so many problems I can think of.
First gathering samples from ATOT is not random sampling. 99.9999% of ATOT is consisted of Nerd ass college guys that sit on their ass and play counter strike or WOW all day.

Second, I can think of a bunch of things that can indirectly link the two things together. First older people has lower metabolism, hence higher weight. Second, there's less reason for all people to work out, hence they are heavier. I can probably think of more examples if I try a little harder, but my head hurts.
