Can someone help me with question #18 on the UT Austin Invitational B test? My answer was 2.2 and the answer key says 1.83.

The link to the test is here: https://utexas.app.box.com/s/5ckx9zggsh ... 36465065/1

Thanks so much!
Huh, I got 2.2 also. Not quite sure if the answer is correct. Maybe someone else can help us out, hmm?
Link doesn’t work :?
Huh, it works on my computers rip. It's in the test exchange as well.

I don't know if it's just my computer, but when I opened it there were only questions 1-17.
Did this happen to anyone/is there any way to fix that?

Yeah, the same happened for me. I was looking at the answer sheet and went "What?"
I guess it's just another bad test...

I have no regrets.

Hi! It's my team's first ever time at States this year (NY) and I would do anything to get top 3 in Disease. I doubt we're getting to nationals since we barely got into states, but either way I would love to do our adviser proud. Anyone have any practice tests or notes or tips that me and my partner can use to get it?

What are the formulas for Z-tests and T-tests? I've already got the chi-squares and the cochran Mantel-Haenszel tests down, and Fisher's exact test is coming along, but it's been hard for me to find resources about these tests in an epidemiology context. Thanks!
