| Abstract: | This paper compares the performances of female and male secondary students in the 1991 and 1992 Australian National Chemistry
Quizzes. Male students consistently achieved a higher mean score in all Year groups (7 to 12), even though the numbers of
female and male entrants were approximately equal. Implications for class tests and assessment tasks are addressed.
