Flavor: 1,2,2,4,5,5. Median = (2+4)/2 = 3
If the rating is 1 then the scores become 1,1,2,2,4,5,5. Median = 2. If the rating is 5, then the scores become 1,2,2,4,5,5,5. Median= 4. Regardless, adding an additional category changes the Median. Select Yes
Appearance: 1,1,3,3,5,5. Median = (3+3)/2 = 3. If the rating s 1, then score is 1,1,1,3,3,5,5. Median = 3. If the rating is 5, then the score is 1,1,3,3,5,5,5. Median = 3. Regardless, the median does not change. Select No
