New Study Confirms Males Outperform Females in Engineering-Related Tasks

oregon dad writes "Here is another study that clearly shows that boys outperform girls in Math, Chemistry, and Physics.
These are the foundation courses for Engineering degrees and this study points out (AGAIN!!) why Men perform better in that function."

Ed. note: What is really interesting about this report is that more women then men are now graduating with engineering degrees from universities and colleges. So why is it that men are graduating at a lesser rate in not just these fields but generally while as boys taking AP tests just a few years before, they are generally scoring higher? Very strange indeed.

College is filled with plenty of opportunities for distraction as well as, we know, special scholarships and support programs for women who want to go into engineering and the sciences. Perhaps between these two forces, the net result is what we see today: fewer men graduating with engineering degrees than women, and fewer men attending/graduating from college overall-- with the increasing tendency of this trend showing no signs of slowing.
