The global results show that both students aged 14 and 16 were able to correctly solve 41% of the questions in the tests. Biology and Geology are the subjects in which the best results were obtained, while those in Physics and Chemistry were worse, not reaching 40% correct answers in either of the latter. The resulting average (MEC Territory) after the tests administered to students aged 14 was 230.17 points, these lying between the anchorage points 200 and 250. This means that the average 14 year old student is able to perform the tasks related to level 200 and has not yet reached the skills at point 250. As to the students aged 16, the resulting average was 267.43, that is to say, somewhat more than 37 points above that for 14 years, thus lying between 250 and 300. Table 13 shows the skills and knowledge in the Nature Science area for each one of the performance levels, as well as the percentages of students who above each level. |
