A logistic regression on whether a candidate is admitted to a graduate program based on the candidate's GRE score, the candidate's undergraduate GPA, and the candidate's rank in their graduating class (4 categories where 1 is the highest rank and 4 is the lowest rank).Please note: I added odds ratios to the right side of the output so that you have both the coefficient and the odds ratio for each covariate.
