Data Analysis

● Juniors have a higher rate of not skipping class in a week (84.62%), and Sophomores are more likely to skip class

more than twice a week (20.83%).

● Sophomores (58.33%) and Seniors (40%) had the lowest rate of not skipping classes in a week. In other words,

although Seniors have without a doubt the most workload, they are more likely to skip class.

● Additionally, although a lot of Freshmen (71.93%) said they would skip class 0 times in a week, Juniors still had a

higher rate of attendance.

● Average free time for ASU students: 20.7 hours,

● Mode: 20 hours

● Median: 15 hours

● Min - Max: 0 - 78 hours

Conclusion
We found out that …

● Judging by this our findings may pertain mostly to the younger ASU crowd.

● Since most of the surveyed students are freshmen, it makes sense the rate of skipping classes is

very low.

● Some respondents may have taken hours sleeping as “free time” which led to such big numbers.

● Since the number of respondents who were Juniors were significantly less than Freshmen, these

results could vary if we had more upperclassmen responses.

● Upperclassmen tend to skip more classes than freshmen/sophomores, but have less free time.
