and it is OK for a few variables, however, I need to do this for many more
variables so my question is, CAN THIS BE AUTOMATED (can i repeat myself
without running mad).
local i=0
foreach origvars of varlist spring crsgpa frstsem {
if `i'==0 test avg`origvars' = avg`origvars'
else test avg`origvars' = avg`origvars' , accum
local i = `i' + 1
}
should do the trick I think.
