from TIMSS 2015 (year 8), their final school grades in As the relationships between the final grades for these three mathematics and science in year 9, and their grades subjects and the TIMSS results in science are very similar, we in national tests in mathematics and science in year 9. [...] For example, the correlation between mathematics in Figure 1, the patterns are the same except students’ final grades in mathematics and their TIMSS scores that the distributions are offset by a few points at each grade in mathematics is 0.76, and the correlation between students’ level. [...] We do not see the same pattern in We further note that the correlation between students’ final mathematics where the lengths of the bars are more evenly grades in mathematics and their final grades in science is distributed over the grade levels. [...] stronger than the correlation between students’ final grades in mathematics and their TIMSS scores in mathematics as well Grades correlate moderately with TIMSS test scores as the correlation between students’ final grades in science Pairwise correlations between students’ final grades, their and their TIMSS scores in science. [...] scores in mathematics is explained by the final grades in mathematics and 39 percent of the variance of the TIMSS The relationship between TIMSS mathematics scores scores in science is explained by the final grades in science.
