Many university admission committees use the GMAT score as one of the critical indicators of how well a student is likely to perform in an MBA program. However, the GMAT might not be a very strong indicator for all MBA programs. Suppose that an MBA program designed for middle managers who wish to upgrade their skills was launched 3 years ago. To judge how well the GMAT scores predict MBA performance, a sample of 12 graduates was taken. Their GPA in the MBA program (values 0 to 12) and their GMAT scores (values ranging from 200 to 800) are listed below. Compare the covariance and the correlation coefficient. Interpret your findings.
