Well our education system sort of works likes this:

1. Quickly teach concepts in each subject.
2. Take test on said concepts.
3. RUSH! RUSH! RUSH!
4. Learn some more concepts. Forget the ones you learned previously.
5. Rinse and repeat until end of the semester.
6. Review all concepts in about 5-10 days.
7. Take giant test.
8. Forget all concepts by next semester/school year. But,you learn some new ones. So we have this 'why should stuff that you learned previously matter' mentality.

"OMG US IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BAD"
Meanwhile France, Sweden, Norway, ect are even ranked lower.

Dang those French, Norweagian, and Swedish are backwards hicks. LOL
Lets not forget those Austrians too.

Man, I'm sad that they rank so low, how embarrassing, good thing they can't read, oh they would go all Caveman. How do you say "Get civilized" in Norweagian or Swedish, is it "BORK BORK BORK!", of course not. It's probably just grunts and body gestures.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Yeah! New Zealand's on the list!

I'm somewhat surprised at New Zealand and Singapore. I also thought Germany was a top country.

I don't think America wants to educate people. If they did educate their people, people there would not join the military and their government could potentially be afraid of these people for what they might do together as a mass to rise up against their government and bring it down.

It's in the best interest of the American government to keep its young people from being educated, because they're the ones who can incite real, tangible change.

Naturally, USA isn't in top ten...

Oh wait, yes it is but they called it "United Kingdom" because they don't understand abbreviation...

BTW Elites rule!

And I am probably just trolling you right now....especially if it is a controversial thread

This is excellent news as an American. Since I will complete a great education in a few years, that means all the people below my intelligence can truly look like -blam!- and I can rise above.

Hello.

I thought Canada was #1?

Meh, at least we're in the top 10.

Case and point: don't worry about it. Girls start getting boobies pretty soon, and then you'll have plenty of other things to think about. Being an Inheritor is not a life goal.

This. Our education system sucks. You wonder why you see drop outs and druggies everywhere. Without a proper education, your future well in my perspective is pretty bad.
We (the United States) need better educated teachers and parents who are willing to help their kids learn, I think we'd shoot up if we could just do those things.

Also, I was thinking Sweden was #1 for some reason.

lel. I got offered a job in the Navy on their nuclear program and am considering taking a job working IT for them. A lot of the military is actually about learning skills and it can really put you on the track to a career when you get out.

America's not even there?

Cmon, we're not that bad...


False. We're awful.


i wasn't surprised that we weren't in the top 10, stupid teacher unions dont want to teach but want the money

Yeah teachers shouldn't really be considered as people, more like teaching machines that should do it for minimum wage. Why are they even allowed to even leave the school building? It'd be much more efficient if they would be locked in.


Did you even bother to read the article? Clearly not.

We have an excellent school system here in Finland partly because teachers are seen as skilled professionals, paid well and respected. They are also required to have a university degree on education.
