Sumario:This paper is an updated version of the invited plenary talk given at the XXII Physics in Collision Conference at Stanford, (June 2002). The measurements performed at LEP and SLC have substantially improved the precision of the tests of the Minimal Standard Model. The precision is such that there is sensitivity to pure weak radiative corrections. This allows to indirectly determine the top mass (\mt=178$\pm$10 GeV), the W-boson mass (\MW=80.368$\pm$0.022 GeV), and to set an upper limit on the Higgs boson mass of 193 GeV at 95% confidence level.
