Fooftycomputes the correlation between an indivdiuals physic

Fooftycomputes the correlation between an indivdiual\'s physical strenth and his or her college grade point average. Using a computer, the correlation for a sample of 2000 people is r(1998) = +.08, p = < .0001. She claims this is a useful tool for predicting which college applicants are likely to succeed academically. Do you agree or disagree? Why?

Solution

i do not agree ith this as individual\'s physical strength and doing academically has no link in general as many sports people are week in academics and many acadmecians are weak in sports in general

also according to the question the value of r is too small to say that it will be a good tool to tell something like this .

hence the answer will be no
