In a comprehensive review of sex differences, Maccoby and Jacklin (1974) concluded that male students consistently outperformed female students on mathematics tests. Hyde (1981), using results from the pertinent studies reported by Maccoby and Jacklin, reported that although the differences consistently favored male students, the sizes of the differences were generally small.

I am in a position to view the product of the high school course, or perhaps I should say the better product, and I might give my conclusions as to the parts of the work that need stressing. I shall try.
