Why do girls get lower SAT scores on average than boys?

<p>I just ready Audreyhill’s post. My sister is an MD and could memorize anything. Graduated summa cum laude. Could memorize the DNA molecule or a book of the BIble just like that. However, as for usable information outside her field, she stumbles ad I help her out. Our valedictorian could sightread Latin books in perfect English. I could not do that, but I am in a highly technical field where women tend not to do well. Viva la difference!</p>
