Notes: The sample consists of individuals who were born in 1984, were in Grade 10, lived in Canada (excluding the Atlantic provinces and the territories) in April or May 2000, and responded to a follow-up survey in 2008. The test scores were measured at age 15 (in 2000); educational outcomes refer to attainment by age 23 (in 2008). Standard errors were estimated with 100 bootstrap weights. Reference category is public high school attendance.
