A study was designed to investigate the effects of two variables — (1) a student’s level of mathematical anxiety and (2) teaching method — on a student’s achievement in a mathematics course. Students who had a low level of mathematical anxiety were taught using the traditional expository method. These students obtained a mean score of 310 with a standard deviation of 40 on a standardized test. Assuming a mound-shaped and symmetric distribution, in what range would approximately 68% of the students score?
