Kyros, precisely as predicted by Mq's theory on brain development and educational processes. Pulling out a bigger brain is a great move in success in examinations. <Here in America, the girls run circles around the boys. They enroll in higher numbers and graduate quicker from college, get better grades, and, increasingly, earn a lot more on the average. > But I think you are wrong on the part about average pay rates. We could ask Google. Google says you are wrong: multinationalmonitor.org They do NOT enroll in engineering, science, maths in higher numbers than blokes and do not get better grades. They enroll in the basket weaving soft subjects such as social "sciences", literature, commerce, marketing, politics, psychology and verbal stuff such as law. Count the women in computer science and electrical engineering. Young women get accepted into college while the young men are still boys. Schools are increasingly designed for females. Boys are increasingly marginalized and the Ritalin statistics would be interesting. I bet boys are dosed a LOT more than girls. Note the large preference in Federal Government jobs for women instead of men. What do YOU think is the point of nature in delaying the maturity of boys, or advancing that of girls? Nature obviously does it to benefit each of them. It's not just random. It's genetically programmed. Why? What effect does it have? Your thoughts awaited with interest. Mqurice PS: Ritalin consumption 4 to 8 times as much for males as females: ablechild.org Note boys ahead on maths/science still, despite all the pressures against them.
