I have been teaching

I have been teaching mathematics at the middle/hi school level for 33 years. Years ago in my 8th grade Algebra I, 4 of the top5 were always boys, but almost always at the top was a girl. The boys always thought they were better. Today in my Algebra I thru PreCalc classes the boys have fallen way off pace. I find the girls quit less easily and thear study skills far superior.
