- Abstract
This document aims to identify explanatory elements to the variability observed in the results of the Saber Pro tests in the modules of Written Communication, English, Critical Reading, Quantitative Reasoning and Citizen Competences from databases supplied by the Colombian Institute for the Promotion of Higher Education Institute in the period between 2012-10 y 2015-30 of students of Pontifical Bolivarian University. It was analyzed variables of binary type corresponding to the existence or not of resources such as Internet, Television, Telephony, Washing Machine, Oven, Microwave, Fridge, Car, and DVD Player in the homes in which the student resides. In virtue of the large amounts of data the two-step-cluster analysis technique was selected to know the grouping of the information. Whith these results a parallel was made with the scores obtained in the Saber Pro test and it was found that, mostly, the students with more economic resources obtain better scores in the test.
