You call one of your friends to go to a movie on Friday night. He declines your invitation, stating that he needs to study for his upcoming exam on Monday. He states that he scores higher on a exam when he studies for the exam. Despite your efforts to convince him to go to the movie, he stays at home to study for his exam. You decide to use the scientific method to test the hypothesis that students who study for an exam tend to score higher than students who do not study for an exam. In what order should you conduct the following steps to test your hypothesis?

To test my hypotesis I should take two groups of students, one that will study for the exam and other that won't, and make them take a test. Then, I will compare the grades of the two groups and, if the group that studied got better grades, I will conclude that my hypothesis was correct.

Explanation:

The six steps of the scietific method are: 1 Ask a question; 2 Research; 3 Propose an hypothesis; 4 Experiment; 5 Analize the data; 6 Accept or Reject the hypothesis

Since I already have questioned if what my friend says it's correct and I have an hypothesis, I only need to follow steps 4 to 6
