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

Second, boys excel in logic much more than girls. It is true objectively, and the well-publicized gender gap in politics where women accept the most illogical and nonsensical arguments would lend huge credence to that. Guys would ask how having more people on healthcare with many paying nothing would reduce costs for everyone. Think reductio ad absurdum. Girls would say we just have to care more and it will all work out. That mind of muddled thinking will not bode well for you taking the SAT.

<p>How’d you do on the SAT, son? If there is indeed a penalty for muddled thinking then probably not so hot, judging from the above.</p>
