[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing is though that high school and middle school favors girls because they go through puberty earlier and that leads to changes in the brain that are advantageous for doing well in school. Boys do catch up eventually, but the current system does make them look like weaker college applicants (esp now that it is so competitive to get into top colleges). [/quote] Everything about American education from the time they are in K favors girls. And then we’re surprised at the outcome. Many of them by middle school or high school have just checked out. A system that tells them they are not good at school so why bother. [/quote]
