The purpose of this experiment is to try to figure out which subjects men/women perform best in.

We think that if we give multiiple choice surveys to a range of students from J.M. Olds Collegiate, we will find out which gender performs better at a range of topics.

1.) We made up a multiple choice survey which consisted of a total of 27 multiple choice questions all together. We had 3 questions for each subject we chose to study. The subjects which we chose were: Physical Science & Technology, Life Science, Geography, History, Social Science, Religion, Art/Language & Literature, Performing Arts, and Sports/Hobbies & Pets.
2.) We chose approximately 30 people randomly from the levels (Grade 10-12) and gave them the necessarty time to complete it.
3.) We then corrected the surveys and compared the results.
4.) At last, we drew conclusions.

We conclude that women are smarter than men when it comes to Art, Language, Literature, Geography, Sports, Hobbies, Petsw and Life Science. Men scored better in History, Performing Arts, Religion, Social Studies, Physical Science and Technology. Overall women were only smarter by a 2 percent average.

We predict that women will score better overall, that men will excel in Sports, Hobbies & Pets, and that women will perform better at Performing Arts, Language, Art & Literature.
