That depends on the difference in your standard deviations. It takes a sample size of 30 to move from the T table to the Z table, but that does not mean you cannot achieve statistically significant results with a smaller sample.


You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.

You cannot over estimate the unimportance of nearly everything. John Maxwell
