SUBMIT YOUR IDEAI get slightly different results but they're close enough, my workflow is almost identical to the solution
All,
I guess that I will go deep on this one!
-In my workflow I have my solution that has My personal selected variables as well as the variables of the solution that I vehemently oppose.
-The reason is although I am able to get the same output, we are really taking Predictive Modeling out of context when we don't examine variable selection.
-I would rather see the Stepwise tool be used next time vice using a simple correlation.

I defiantly need more work on the predictive tools. This exercise was a good challenge.
Laziness breeds efficiency. I started with the Association Analysis tool, but didn't want to sift through the data to figure out the top 10. I looked through the other Data Investigation tools and found the Pearson Correlation tool, which let me find the top 10 much easier (And more reliable than looking through a big table (: )
