Question 3 • GA-GSE World Geography B

Which of the following statements about pay and promotion equality is false?

Answer
A
In all societies worldwide, men make more money than women for doing the same work.
B
The number of women in high-tech professions continues to lag.
C
The pay gap is closing in the developed world.
D
Women are as likely as men to hold senior management positions.

Explanation

Women are underrepresented in senior management, so they are not as likely as men to hold those positions. The number of women in high-tech professions still lags, and the pay gap has been narrowing in many developed countries. Therefore, the false statement is that women are as likely as men to hold senior management positions.
