A categorical variable places the individuals of a dataset into one of several groups or categories.
In this dataset, for example, the Medical School states what school the student attended.
A quantitative variable takes numerical values that we can use to perform arithmetic operations such as addition or finding an average.
In this data set, we can find the average USMLE score or the average age of the students.
