Abstract

Introduction: coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by a novel coronavirus.  The World Health Organization (WHO) was informed of cases of pneumonia of unrecognized microbial etiology detected in Wuhan City, Hubei province in China, on December 31 2019. Objective: to compare the results of the Saber 11- 2019 and 11- 2020 tests, during the COVID-19 pandemic, in the General Santander educational institution located in the municipality of Soacha, Cundinamarca, Colombia. Methodology: an experimental research design was used. Results were obtained from the Saber 11, 2019 and 2020 tests.  Results: the averages obtained for the different subjects evaluated in the test did not show significant differences, which indicates there was no evidence of a decrease in the test overall scores in said institution. Conclusion: the fact that there are no significant differences between years 2019 and 2020 also lies in the fact that students belong to the same social and economic context.
