You have to sort your data appropriately first

 

proc sort data=strength;
    by program;
run;

proc means data=strength mean std var;
    by program;
    var s1 s2 s3 s4 s5 s6 s7;
run;

The output would look slightly different but you can use a CLASS statement instead of BY which will not generate the not sorted by BY variables error.

 

proc means strength=have mean std var;
   var s1 s2 s3 s4 s5 s6 s7;
   class program;
run;

If you have large data with lots of values for the class variables there can be performance issues.
