Abstract
The academic outcomes of students with (n = 653) and without disabilities (n = 41,357) were compared over a 12-year period at a large Quebec college. Results showed that students with and without disabilities, including learning disabilities, had virtually iden-tical grades and graduation outcomes. However, students with disabilities undertook lighter course loads and took approximately one semester longer to graduate. The find-ings suggest that counsellors need to urge students with disabilities to consider higher education when developing their career plans. In planning the transition, students need to be made aware of disability-related services at post-secondary institutions. Les résultats scolaires d’étudiants d’un grand collège québécois, avec (n = 653) et sans (n = 41 357) déficience, ont été comparés en utilisant des données s’étendant sur 12 années. Les étudiants ayant des déficiences, y compris des troubles d’apprentissage, et les étudiants sans déficience ont obtenu des résultats et des taux de diplômation sensi-blement identiques. Les étudiants avec déficience avaient un horaire de cours moins chargé et prenaient environ un semestre de plus pour obtenir leur diplôme. Les résul-tats donnent à penser que les conseillers pédagogiques devraient encourager les étu-

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
