Description
The large value of $\theta_{13}$ recently discovered at reactor neutrino experiments has opened the door to determine the ordering of their mass eigenstates in the near future. However, since the neutrino mass ordering is a discrete parameter it is not clear whether the median sensitivity of a given experiment would coincide with the usual values reported in the literature. I will present a summary of the different possibilities to determine the neutrino mass ordering in the near future, and I will briefly discuss the statistical issues related to the significance of the signal for this measurement.
