Growing up, I would definitely not say that boys were better at maths than girls. I have no set percentages or anything like that, but I'd say about 50/50. Maybe in high school there were more boys taking maths though. Maybe because jobs that require maths are more luring to men rather than women. Like, engineering. So, in high school they are forced to take the math courses more so, hence possibly becoming more apt at it than females?
