I punteggi di test standardizzati svedesi rispetto ai voti degli insegnanti potrebbero spiegare perché gli uomini sentono che l’uguaglianza è discriminazione.

The data is about how Swedish pupils perform on Högskoleprovet which is our SAT compared to grades from teacher (GPA).

The title is about this comment on the post about Norwegian teens think equality have gone too far.

That’s a very wierd title given the content of the post.

Solution to this is abolishing grades.

Because today’s worldwide education system bores male students to death. Female teachers, testesteron-less boring classess, compete-free activities, sitting all day long while your male body urge to move, run, compete physically… Compared to girls, males have more energy, more power, and much more drive rather than sitting on chair… you can’t just focus when your body wants to you do sth. Genders really need different schooling and activity program.

Man, before everything else, must become physically elite. Most jobs which are majorly executed by males, excluding office jobs, require strength, physical performance, handcraftmanship. Women’s preferences are less likely physical. So men must become elite athletes, especially starting from very young age.

I have nothing to do with Sweden, but I can tell you that girls were always getting better grades for less than boys back when I was in school.

Presenting these graphs without proper context may lead to some misunderstanding of how the Swedish system functions. It is worth to note that when applying for university, you either apply with your grades or the score for the test, they are not combined. This results in that many students do not take the test, since they already have high enough grades to get in to their programme of choice.

This leads to some interesting phenomena. Mainly that it is not uncommon for students to take the test early in high-school, get a good score and then more or less not try in high-school. It may also lead to students not taking their schooling seriously since they can rely on the test.

The programmes in Sweden that generally require the highest grades/scores are medical doctor, psychology, law and certain engineering programmes. The three first programmes generally have slightly more women while engineering is generally male dominated.

If anyone has any questions about the Swedish system, I am happy to respond.

So… I thought this was r/europe rather than a right wing misogynist circlejerk. What the heck has been going on here recently? It’s like anyone talking about boys and or girls becomes the bat-signal for weirdos

How big is that gap really? I can’t tell what the y axis represents

I do remember hearing about something similar in another country though (US or Canada i think), interesting to see it replicated elsewhere
