Subject Preferences, Sex Differences and Comparability of Standards
This paper reports research into the relationship between the apparent variety of standards applied to different GCE Ordindary level subjects and school‐children's avowed preferences for subjects. The ordering of subjects by grades awarded agrees closely with those derived in similar research in England and elsewhere and is shown to be comparatively stable across time. This ranking is also shown to agree closely with expressed preferences of subj…
Grading A‐level Double Subject Mathematicians and the Implications for Selection
This study used entry data from the 1980 Summer examination of the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate to assess the comparative grading of two forms of double mathematics: separate Pure and Applied papers as against Mathematics and Further Mathematics. The data confirm expectation, and existing evidence, in finding that whilst in the former system the two resulting grades are approximately equal, in the latter case large grade d…
