. As a percentage, this is computed as 0.97or 97%. Grades of A, B, C, D, or F are assigned on traditional break lines (A > 90, 90 < B < 80, 80 0.80) versus C, D, and F (< 0.80). We hopethis approach might resonate with people using assessment data to inform goals for improvedperformance. We use a two-tailed student t-Test to identify any significant gaps between PS reported byfemale and male students and between underrepresented minorities (URM) and non-underrepresented minorities (Non-URM). In each gap analysis, the null hypothesis is that themeans between the two groups are similar. We use the t-Test on the Spring 22 data because ofthe sample size. For the Fall 22 data, we use the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum method [15] to test if
