An intermediate measure of a student's success in law school is,
of course, law school GPA. Table 2 below provides averages and
standard deviations of law school GPAs by the ethnicities of the 873
students in the data set who have a law school GPA record.
For many ethnic groups, the number of students is much lower
than the two largest groups (Whites and African-Americans). An
analysis of variance (ANOVA) comparing the means of the groups
to one another found statistically significant differences among the
average law school GPAs of the different ethnic groups. The last
column in Table 2 provides an indication of which groups had
statistically significant differences; groups with the same letter in
this column are not statistically different from one another.
