SAT Score vs Graduation Rate

Graduation rate is strongly correlated with SAT score. The R-value between graduation rate and SAT score is 0.612298238, which suggests a strong positive correlation. As graduation rate increases, SAT score increases. The p-value for the two variables is 1.77375E-61 is much lower than the critical value of 0.05, which rejects the null hypothesis. The data suggests that the relationship between graduation rate and SAT score is not due to random chance and that there is a strong relationship between those variables. The relationship between them might be due to another factor, though. Students take the SAT before graduation, which means that graduation rate likely doesn’t influence SAT score in itself. Instead, it’s most likely an indicator of an underlying factor that does influence SAT score.
