A Study of Performance of Teacher and Non-Teacher Streams Graduates with Reference to Natural Sciences II: A Test about the Dispersion

Abstract

This study gives empirical results about the academic
performance of four batches of graduates from the natural science streams
of the Faculty of Science, Addis Ababa University. The purpose of the
undertaking was to see if there was any difference in the dispersion of grade
distribution of students in the teacher and non-teacher streams in the
Faculty in maj9r subject areas and in overall performance. The results
showed that there were no variations in the performance of the two
categories of students. This was invariably true for all batches, and for all
subject areas.
