Une étude du rendement scolaire des étudiants en sciences de l’éducation comparé à celui d’autres étudiants de premier cycle sur une période de dix ans (1973–1984), étude basée sur plus de 20 000 notes, a révélé que : (1) les étudiants en sciences de l’éducation, inscrits dans des cours de premier cycle dans d’autres facultés, obtiennent en général des résultats plus faibles que ceux d’autres étudiants de premier cycle comparables; (2) dans les cours des cycles supérieurs, la situation est inversée : les étudiants en sciences de l’éducation ont, en général, un meilleur rendement scolaire que leurs homologues inscrits dans d’autres facultés; (3) les étudiants qui se sont inscrits en sciences de l’éducation après avoir obtenu un diplôme ailleurs étaient, du point de vue du rendement scolaire, aussi aptes que les cohortes inscrites dans d’autres facultés; (4) les femmes inscrites dans les programmes d’enseignement au primaire et au secondaire ont, en général, un meilleur rendement scolaire que leurs homologues masculins; (5) ces tendances sont demeurées stables au cours de la période de dix ans.
