This isn't a fair comparison. One would expect engineers to score much
higher than people in Education. Just as one would generally expect people
in medicine to score higher. It has to do with it being a much harder
program, with a heavier course load.
Let's see the stats for male engineers and female engineers.

And yet they don't seem to perform 60% better.
