" A Cambridge University study has found that the more sex partners students have, the lower their grades, the Daily Mail reports. The online study was published in the student magazine Varsity and compiled results based on more than 1,000 Cambridge University students’ answers. It found that medical students were among those with the most sexual partners, on average eight, in contrast to mathematicians, who had the least, with almost half being virgins. "It's obvious that the mathematicians haven't found the winning formula yet," said Mark Fletcher, Students Union president at Cambridge. "But it's good to see that Doctors and Nurses is still a popular game.""

correlation =/= causation

its saying more partners = lower grades
but then says doctors/nurses have more partners
so, doctors have lower grades than mathematicians?~

"Christ's College, second in last year's Tompkins list, reported the highest number of virgins, with over a quarter of respondents never having had sex."

well durr

did they give a total average rather than just the medical student average...if 8 was the highest, hopefully the average is like 4, that way i wouldnt feel as loserish

it would be more amusing if this was sex partners at one time, rather than over their entire lives.

because then i'd be all like "of course your grades suffer when you're fucking 8 people! when would you find time to study???"

i should be a doctor then

1/25/2008 1:49:31 PM

now they need study to figure that out?

You're going to see these statistics flip overnight once someone publishes an algorithm for getting laid.
