Analysis of the same end-of-semester examination, using a 100-point system with pass over 60% and excellence over 80%; the article reports the excellence-rate difference as significantly higher for participants, with "88%" versus 74% and 45% versus 12%.

"the pass rate of integrated course-participants (experimental) was 88% which was much higher than students taught by traditional d idactic teaching (74%, control). Furthermore, the excellence score rate for participants was 45%, which was significantly higher than non -participants, 12%"
