mchu A F-test checks whether or not the ratio of the test statistic, (s1)2/(s2)2, is close to 1. If it is, you will obtain a non-rejection of H0; if not, a rejection of H0.
teje but is also depends on the significance level that you choose...in fact if you get a F statistic below 1, you should invert it, i.e. 1/f stat; be sure to also invert the degrees of freedom!
Shaan23 How is a big value of F always gonna cause a rejection of Ho. It depends on the critical value and the significance level you choose.

Unless they mean a HUGE number. I also didnt know if they meant the F value calculated as the test statistic or the F critical value. Without being specific you cant answer the question.
