Hello,
My name is Caitlin. I am a current student at Hood College and I am also a Type 1 Diabetic myself. For my statistics project I have chosen to do a comparison between A1c and Months with Diabetes, seeing if there is a correlation between the two.
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/VGTBRD2
All those who fill out my survey are entered to win a $50 Amazon Gift Card.
Thank you,
Caitlin

I did the survey, though I'm from Canada. Hope that's okay. The Amazon gift card is only open to U.S. residents.

I did not apply for the $50 gift card, as I have no interest in it.
Sometimes, it's good to be diabetic.
Be well.

The one really valuable thing I learned from when I took statistics, was that the numbers can be used to show anything you want!
I'm assuming that this is just a class exercise, because no offense, but there are so many other factors involved in why some Type 1's have lower A1C's than others that a comparison between length of diagnosis and A1C doesn't mean a lot.
Ok, sorry, the teacher in me!
