Levels not connected by same letter are significantly different.

This means that despite differences in quiz scores, statistics are not significant enough to say they are different.  For example, since “don’t have a permit yet, but will get one” and “have a permit from another state” are both grouped under “B” their performance on the quiz is considered to be the same.  On the other hand, “have a permit from Virginia” is significantly higher than “wish no one had permits.”
