Either the big man doesn’t understand stats (likely) or this is badly translated (equally likely).Seventy-eight per cent of young women passed, while only 22 per cent of young men did. Why? Research needs to be conducted to ascertain how this happened. Is it because young men like to socialise while female students are staying home and studying
What it should say is that ‘of the A grades achieved 78% were female students and 22% were male’
I would have expected girls to outperform the guys, I think that is common in other countries. But the size of the disparity does surprise me. But, of course, those guys, including the B,C, D and E grades will still get the higher level jobs.
