Choosing a test

Do this!!!

Note: the wording on this website is more vague than the AP test. The AP test always asks for "a 95% confidence interval" if it wants an interval (or some other %). Also, the AP problems are longer, and thus have more information that will guide you to deciding what to do.

However, I think that after you 10 or so of these, you'll get used to the wording of this site and it will be good practice. If it is just always frustrating, switch to finding the tests and intervals in your notebook. Every released test (A, B, C,...) has at least one.

Note: this website includes prediction intervals, which you do not
need to know.
