a. In 2002 to 2004, there were 4948 Ontario residents applied to the province’s medical schools. Of these 4948 applicants, 4588 were from urban areas and the rest were from rural areas. Statistics Canada reported that 13% of the Ontario’s population live in rural areas. Do the data suggest that rural students were underrepresented among the applicants for this two-year period? Perform the test at the significance level of 0.01.

b. Assume a sample (x1, . . . , xn) from a normal population with mean µ and a known variance σ02. A researcher is interested in testing if the true population mean is greater than µ0. Find the range of the sample mean x̅ such that the researcher will reject the null hypothesis at 5% level of significance.

c. The result in part (b) is known as the rejection region. It is given to you that from a given sample, we have n = 25, σ02 = 4 and the rejection region obtained in part (b) is x̅ > 1.658. What is the chance of a sample mean falling in the rejection region if the true µ is 2?

The Flexner report was spurred by the fact that: - The thousands of medical schools in North America had little unity of purpose or of standards - The majority of medical schools were using the same standards but it wasn't written down explicitly for all to see - It was time for a fresh look since the last study of this kind was done 50 years before the Flexner report - The Carnegie Foundation wanted to establish itself as an...
