<p>Neither the median nor the mean have to be exactly (1320+1500)/2. Are they expected to be close to 1410? It depends but in this case, yes. Is 1398 and 1410 close in this case? Yes. The true mean can easily differ by 12 points (really not much considering you are talking about 1400) if the distribution skews just slightly to the left. LOL! It could very well be because of those football players just like krk3561 said. ;)</p>
