Religion and test scores

[Grandphoenix]

I'm trying to find some statistics of people from different faiths for standardized testing or even a completion rate of school/college instead of just race do they do that?

The only place they would do that would be in academics such as universities and colleges. Check out some anthropological studies (cross-cultural or religious) so sociologist studies. I've personally never done a study like that so good luck finding sources.

There are plenty of studies out there. I know that feasibly speaking, people of Christian-oriented denomination (specifically Protestant/psuedo-Luterhan) are more apt to score higher, but only because they have a higher population in the U.S than the other religions. Never take race-based and religious-based studies with a grain of salt, because they also dismiss the population size.

hmm at the moment I'd say any info would be better than the blank numbers I'm coming up with ><

I might be able to find some numbers from a few websites I'm familiar with.

If you could provide the website/database I could do the dirty work just the database I'm searching through doesn't seem to have much relative information for what I'm looking for

bump for great justice!

Not quite what you are looking for but slightly on topic since there is a section on SAT scores.

also you may want to look up article that would help

Burnham Beckwith's article, "The Effect of Intelligence on Religious Faith," Free Inquiry, Spring 1986: (1)

It helps but I'm needing a posting from within 2004 or later actually guess I forgot to mention that ><
