Abstract

Standardized tests are a way of measuring the competencies of graduates from different careers throughout the country and provide feedback to the curriculum as well as regarding the performance of the students. The objective of this analysis was to compare the main results in each of the areas included in this graduation exam as well as other contextual variables such as gender, educational model and campus. For this purpose, a documentary collection was carried out based on the data obtained from graduates of a bachelor's degree in Education who presented the General Bachelor's Degree Exit Exam (EGEL, for its acronym in Spanish) test between the years 2019-2021. Among the main results, no statistically significant differences were found between the Educational Model or cohort variables, however, there were between sex as well as between the areas examined by the exam. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the areas in which differences were found between the maintainers both in the revision of the contents of the subjects, as well as in the teaching and learning strategies and methodologies throughout their formative trajectories; this in turn leads to rethinking in more far-reaching modifications to the curriculum.
