| DonAnd | F-test checks whether or not the ratio of the test statistic s1^2/s2^2 is close to 1. If it is, DO NOT reject Ho; if it is not close to 1,reject Ho. |
| johntan1979 | For those who sometimes get confused like me, F refers to test value, not critical value. Small F value means it will be less than critical value = non-rejection of H0 |
| Teeto | If I get a small value like 0.01 then 1/F = 100 - way above 1 that means the null must be rejected. |
