Simpson's Paradox Admission

A few years back, the University of California, Berkeley did a study to determine if their admission process was gender-biased. The study looked at a number of admissions statistics to understand if the university's admissions policies were tipped in favor of one gender over another.

Through this notebook, will illustrate Simpson's Paradox.

what we will do through the notebook

Use the Jupyter notebook to analyze "admission_data.csv" to find the following values:

  • Proportion and admission rate for each gender
  • Proportion and admission rate for physics majors of each gender
