Edited sentence: " showed that two-thirds of college-educated white men in math, science, and engineering have math SAT scores below 650 (with the same earnings advantage as men with higher math scores).A 2008 paper in Science reported that U.A second paper, presented in the afternoon at the same conference where Summers spoke, showed that high math scores do not predict success in math, sciences and engineering.And although the Science paper reported that boys' math scores still vary more than girls' math scores, with twice as many white boys above the 99th percentile as girls, the pattern was reversed in Asians, where it is girls who are over represented among the highest math scorers.For example, the math and science scores of girls have steadily improved over the last several decades.More generally, the paper's author concluded, "the demographic composition of the science and engineering workforce cannot be explained by the distribution of attributes measured by these standardized tests of mathematics.Summers' arguments have been rebutted on several grounds.The paper "Is the Science and Engineering Workforce Drawn from the Far Upper Tail of the Math Ability Distribution.This change from a large difference to no difference over just a few years demonstrated that the cause of the difference was not innate.girls were doing just as well on math tests as boys
