If we are low in the world rankings--one again.
It is due to the fact that all have and are encouraged to take advantage of opportunity. We don't cull students that are not scholars into vocational training in the 7th grade like many of these countries.
We have special ed students taking the SAT and ACT. They don't. If we change this our ranking will improve.
For better rankings, are you willing to cull the 'undesired'?
Another thing, as far as I know, there is not ONE test that all students in all countries take. That right there would make a study or a ranking system invalid.
Yes yes its so obvious; it turns out that our kids are number 1 and South Korean kids are last.
I stated the obvious.
You think comparisons are valid when all the tests are different?
You must have been one of the people on that 7up-chum comparison ad that ran years ago.
You think our general population being compared to their best and brightest is fair?
You think..........that's a joke in itself.
