Sadly, the shitty school experience still persists. Thankfully we are finding new ways to educate without succumbing to death cult of the grades.
It says Vietnam got 468, and USA got 489
edit: Oh, that’s 2022, I can’t find 2023
Edit2: There is no PISA 2023, PISA tests every 3 years, and delayed 2021 to 2022 because of COVID.
The USA’s math score was 4 points behind Vietnam’s, but their science was 27 ahead.
Here’s a better review of the data and test in general: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/pisa-scores-by-country
oh you’re right, I went by this, but should’ve checked the ranking there :)
Another interesting trend is that lower-income countries, such as Vietnam, tend to perform better than wealthier nations, such as the United States, in these metrics.
Check out this analysis of the data: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/pisa-scores-by-country
I don’t know anything about the site and spent 30 seconds looking at the article, but it doesn’t present the data in a misleading way to create “always the same map” ( ) by setting the major shift in perceived color just below the OECD group and then not coloring in countries like China and Vietnam that outperform the imperial core
There’s definitely a bias there, and I’d argue that this makes it even more significant that they have to admit China is outperforming the west. Skipping Russia in particular is a bit funny given that Russia tends to perform really well at math and computer olympiads. When a country with a population of only 143 million consistently outperforms a billion people in the west, that’s a sign that the education system is working well.
PISA is literally run by the OECD.
I haven’t looked at the data to figure out how they’re lying, but they exist to prescribe liberal policies.
