Bakgrund: Bakgrunden till uppsatsen är de, i forskningen, uppmärksammade bristerna i att förutsäga studieframgång utifrån gymnasiala studieresultat. Forskning kring hur studenters sociala bakgrund påverkar studieframgång och fortsatta studieval, utgör också grund för uppsatsen. I centrum för uppsatsen står de betygsgrundande proven och de kunskaper som där efterfrågas. Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen

Syre är det tredje vanligaste grund ämnet i rymden efter väte och helium. Det förekommernaturligt i tre stabila isotoper; nämligen syre 16,17 och18. Syre 16 är den dominerandesyre isotopen och den huvudsakliga produkten vid kärnbr änning av helium och neon. Dessareaktioner kan ta mellan 3 och 106 år och sker vanligen i det inre omr ådet av massiva stjärnor med exempelvis åtta gånger solens massa. Oxygen is produced inside massive stars and dispersed into the interstellar medium mainly through type II supernovae explosions. This element, which is the third most abundant one in the Universe, plays an important role in tracing the Galactic chemical history and evolution. This study aims at determining oxygen abundances from a sample of 714 F and G dwarf stars located in the solar neighborhoo
