How to Do a T-Test for Beginners

- In this tutorial, I explain how to perform a t-test on Microsoft Excel 2013. If you are using the freeware Google Sheets, then most of this still applies. The test is really easy to calculate, but understanding the meaning and uses can be frustrating. In this tutorial, I try to explain this with different examples and trying to not get too technical for beginners. Remember, you want a minimum of 10 samples (n=10) for each group of data in order to develop a reasonable bell curve for the t-test to evaluate. Anything less than n=10 does not give us a reasonably accurate calculation. However, the more samples, the better!
This was the most accurate video description I have ever seen. So easy to understand and helped more than my teacher did. Kudos to this person!
I learned more in 20 minutes than I did in 3 months in a class with a tenured professor.
I appreciate that. To be fair, I struggled to learn this, but one day it just "clicked". I don't know why it isn't explained in a more simple way to people.
Whoops, this is my other channel - I didn't realize I was commenting under the wrong username.
I also learned MORE in 20 minute from this video than I learned from my boyfriend who has a Phd Degree in Informatik and does heavy-math stuff. As good as they may be, some people are just not cut out for teaching. THANK YOU again.
same happened with me
couldn't agree more!
Sir, please accept my utmost respect for such an ostentatious explanation of T-test , one tail and two tail test's explanation . You are an exceptionally amazing teacher and have explained from the ground level.Thank you so much for a wonderful contribution to education
Great. Great explanations. Such a relief when someone teaches something and does not assume the audience has the basics down after explaining it one time before.
I have clicked through so many videos and had a rough understanding of statistics and p-values (I'm learning from scratch to complete my thesis!) and this video is the first time I finally got it. Holy crap thank you. I wish you were my teacher!
I spent a whole day trying to understand the t-test and its parameters. This instruction made my day! Very good! Great!
This is how statistics should be taught! How I wish he was my teacher back in school...but it's never too late and I learned a lot just from this while I use Excel extensively for various analytics. The reason why he can explain this so beautifully and simply is because he gets it! Opposite is true for those lectures where we're lost/confused.
The most comprehensive video for t test on youtube I've ever watched. Thank you very much.
Great teacher. He speaks in a similar cadence to Ron Swanson.
After a long time of not understanding the t-tests I finally understand it crystal clear. Thank you very much!
this is one of the best videos on youtube explaining anything ever. thank you.
Before watching this video, I tried several other training videos but quit after the first 2 or three minutes. Your video is easy to follow, with good emphasis on key concepts and hands-on instruction. Thank you.
Just wanted to add my appreciation to the chorus, this was explained SO much better than the other 5 videos I watched, I came out finally understanding the difference between a one and two tailed T-Test; thank you sir!
I appreciate the comments. I will try to make more. Thank you.
key thing when you want to learn something basic is for the instructor to understand that no knowledge is assumed. This does that well, without the pomposity of trying to show how clever you are. Very useful resource, thank you.
this is legit the BEST explanation for t-tests that i've ever seen, thank you for this!
I BET YOU ARE THE BEST TEACHER AND I HAVE WATCHED TENS OF VIDEOS AND THIS IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST EXPLANATION!
Sir this was a really great lecture. thank you for that.
You are welcome.

You are welcome
Thank you. Watching this made me understand it more from our lectures
Thank you sooo much for saving my Biology IA!
I have the IA due tomorrow and I still have to do the statistical analysis...
The teacher didn't teach us how to do this very well. But now I am saved!
I haven taken stat before but I cannot remember all the concepts anymore. This tutorial refreshes my understanding about what was taught before by my Professor for my master's degree. Thank you for this initiative!
I need to learn this for nursing school. I am a visual learner. you explain it in an easy-understanding way.
As what most comments says, this is the first time I understand the right application. Great Job Sir!
OMG, This tutorial was so amazing and applicable all at the same time! Thank you so much! I had no background for statistics, and it was explained so usefully that I understood everything!
Taking a college 3-week Statistics Course and your video helped me earn a 90% on today's exam. Thank you!!

Who could have taught it more clearly than this? NO ONE !👏👌👌👌
Hi. After watching your video, I got all the answers to my questions. Your teaching style is amazing and very instructive. There's no doubt that you are a great teacher and I'm glad that I clicked on your video. Thank you.
Greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
I'm so grateful for you! My stats professor didn't explain this in any way like you did! Wish you were my teacher!!!
The way of your teaching is unmatchable
Thanks for the video! It was the most productive 20 minutes of my self-quarantine
This is the BEST video I've ever seen regarding this topic. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Very clear explanation. You’re a good teacher, I can tell.
you are the only useful video on CZcams. Thank you for being alive
Much better than my college prof's explanation. Thanks!
thank you so much because of you i got 99 in my research, more power and god bless sir
Do you know videos I’ve watched before I made it to this video & now I completely understand a t-test? 🙏 I thought was going to be up all night!!
This was by far the best explanation of this topic. Thanks a lot!
Wow! I learned more in 20 minutes than I thought possible. Thank you!
The best lecture for any student even if he is not in the field of statistics, thank you so much.
This was amazing. Thank you for being clear and making this easy to understand.
5 classes of quantitative analitical chemist in 20 minutes. Making the calculations is not the hardest part, asking the real questions is. Thanks for your video.
Thank you so much. I have learned all about t test by seeing this video.
Seriously one of the best videos explaining t.tests and the elements that contribute to doing one that I have seen in the last 6 weeks. Well done, your students are lucky to have you.
This video really walked me through some long-time confusion about T test and certain concepts. Thank you very much

You are an absolutely fantastic teacher. Thank you very much for the concise explanation.
Thank you very much. Now I understood what T-test is all about! It's helpful. Thanks a lot. 🙏
Wao, the best so far. Never knew statistics can be this simple. THANKS great Tutor
Thanks! that's the best explanation I had ever. I couldn't understand when my professor learn us about ir.
This is significantly better video on understanding the topics mentioned with only < 5% chances of getting a better video in entire youtube maths community.
1 tailed and type 3
Another null hypothesis
Will Mr. Atomic Teacher make a dedicated playlist in near future (please)?
This was ridiculously helpful. Thank you so much. This would have been helpful the first time I took statistics (and failed). Here's to the third time, hoping I pass :) Thanks again.
You are welcome. More videos are coming (teaching senior-level again this year).
Did you pass?

I learned so much. Thank you for such wonderful tutorial. if all teachers were like you, people will love maths and statistics.
The BEST EXPLANATION EVER.
This is the best explanation for T-test I have watched.
AWESOME! SIMPLY JUST AWESOME! THANK YOU SO MUCH! UGH, I CAN'T EMPHASIZE ENOUGH HOW GREAT THIS VIDEO WAS! 5 stars lol
Oh my gosh I would just like to reiterate what the others in this comment section are saying, and THANK YOU!! 🙏
Fantastic. Thankyou from a very frustrated graduated student
Its really cool how you added some historical background. I've never tried a Guinness beer but when I do, I'll think about the t-test and about the chemist William Sealy Gosset (aka Student)
I thought I would never understand how the p value and t test work...Watched a hundred videos, but your video sir was just excellent !!!
Very well done sir!!! You are clearing up A LOT of confusion I had about this subject that I do love.
Thank you for your comments.
Excellent video, your content is very easy to understand and you manage to make it accessible when most other teachers can't !
A real teacher.Thanks
Explained very well. Thank you, helps with my Economics and Finance degree
Very helpful! It's been over 20 years since I've studied statistics....never had to use it for work til now. Still love the science of it though.
Best and simplest explanation! Thanks!
Thanks for your lecture! Your way of teaching makes it clearer.
The best explanation of T.test. Thanks
Excellence is based on simplicity..!!very clear and to the point. Thank you so much
You are a legend. Answered every question I had.
Thank you. very well explained to a novice like me. i feel confident to do simple T-tests now in my job.
Thank you very much for a very thorough and clear explanation. It was very helpful and one of the best videos I have seen.
This was very good - clear, informative. I just mention that in the grasshopper example the difference in the shapes of the distributions makes it "suspicious" that there might be a statistically significant difference, after all. And 0,08 is not much above the critical level as the lecturer said. One should claim then that "there seems to be a tendency, it is a strong hypotheses, we need more data to make it sure". So, yes, 0,05 value is the limit of certainty but there might be a "grey zone" above this. It might be too simplified to conclude that "it was not significant" and that is that. One might do only this if there is no time or space for more (say, in a school test). But these "close" results might also be mentioned (in some studies) - formulated cautiously, not to mislead the readers. (It is sad that sometimes journalists abuse such "half-baked" uncertain results. And I have already seen an example where a journalist multiplied three "mays" by four "mights" and concluded that the result is "it is certainly so".)

Thank you so much for this great summary! I have been struggling to understand the t-test and you made it very clear to me know. Cheers!
This presentation is very good to understand so i appreciate you
Clearly and comprehensively explained. Thank you very much.
Thank you for the wonderful explanation. That was easy to understand. this is what i needed to understand.
Great video!! Really save my day. I have go through a lot of videos, but this is the best. The most well explained. Thanks a lot!! ❤️❤️❤️ Your video sure had helped a lot people like me who have been struggling for days to understand the concept. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Superb! I can finally say that I have understood T-test after months of studying and reading about T-tests. Thank you!
It was so helpful. I was reading books but couldn’t understand this much. Thnxx
Thank you! Sir you just saved my internal assessment.
I did it for my student's IA's... I understand your pain.
Sir
Excellent video and insisting the 5 percent statement again and again instills the thought as a permanent memory
thank you
Everything explained in a proper way. Nice.
If you removed the outliers from the second block, I bet there would be a significant difference. Love your style - rock on Atomic Teacher.
Thank you very much. Best lecture of t-test for dummies like me.
Thank you Dr. Broadbeck. Amazing teacher!
Great Lecture. If you are still asking the question: " is there a significant difference between the two sample" but there are only 6 data points what type of test do you do? {Note: this would be considered 2 tail and unpaired data}.
Well, I am doing a big part of the semester in one day, so thank You, kind sir!
superb explanation! I supposed to learn from this video at the very beginning... very enlightening!
Thank you Atomic Teacher. Your vedio is very helpful, now I will be able to calculate t-test without any problem
I really appreciate your examples. extremely comprehensible
Best lecture on T-test in youtube
I didn't want this video to end, thank you Sir!
2:16 - "You wanna get rid of doin that!"
Great line
Atomic teacher Sir excellent explanation. Simple and brief .Appreciate. Thank you

The best explanation I've come across so far.
This is the best tutorial I have seen, thank you very much.
Great explanation. Concepts regarding t-test are perfect and clear.
Dude thanks. The Harlem shake in the petri dish was hilarious too. Got to be the best version I've seen.
Thank you
This video was super helpful and so easy to understand. Thank you
Loved the way you explained. It was worth watching.
Man, I wish you were my IB Bio teacher.
You just saved me from my homework. Thank you, Sir!
