1. Most graduate schools of business require applicants for admission to take the Graduate
Management Admission Council’s GMAT examination. Scores on the GMAT are roughly
normally distributed with a mean of 527 and a standard deviation of 112. What is the probability
of an individual scoring above 500 on the GMAT?

2. The heights of the 430 National Basketball Association players were listed on team rosters at the
start of the 2005–2006 season. The heights of basketball players have an approximate normal
distribution with mean, µ = 79 inches and a standard deviation, σ = 3.89 inches. For each of
the following heights, calculate the z-score and interpret it using complete sentences.
