Do students who take an AP Statistics course in high school do better in college statistics courses? To find out, an academic counselor conducts a study where she compares the grades in a college-level statistics course of students who took an AP course in high school and students who did not take an AP course in high school. The counselor knows that about 22% of students who never took an AP statistics course get an A in their first college-level statistics course. She collects a random sample of 100 students who took an AP statistics course and found that 28% of them earned an A in the first college-level statistics course.

Assuming that all the conditions and assumptions have been met, is there evidence that students who take an AP Statistics course in high school do better in a college-level statistics course than students who do not take an AP Statistics course in high school? Explain.
