SUMMARY:Caterina Calsamiglia - IPEG Barcelona
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:\n\nThe Design of University Entrance Exams and its Implications for Gender
  Gaps” Joint with Andreu Arenas \nAbstract: \nWe study the effects of a ref
 orm that increased the stakes of the national exam at the end of high schoo
 l for university enrolment in Spain. We find a negative effect of the refor
 m on female test scores, driven by a worse performance in the exams for whi
 ch the stakes increase the most, and driven by students expected to be top 
 performers. The effect on test scores translates into significant changes i
 n students’ allocation to college: female enrolment in the most selective d
 egrees declines, together with expected earnings. \n
