Ok, here's another problem that we're stuck on:
"Twelve sets of identical twins were taught music recognition by two techniques (each twin was taught with a different method). At the end of the course, their imporvement scores were recorded.
Method 1: 7 4 6 1 5 1 6 3 4 6 5 3
Method 2: 2 4 3 2 3 4 2 4 4 3 5 2
Is there a difference in the methods?"
Again, any help would be SO appreciated for us highschool stats students! Thanks!

Hint - you are dealing with SCORE data, comparing 2 non-independent groups or sets of pairs, and want to know if there is a difference between the 2 group means.
