PISA is a joke, so this doesn't really have any merit. US News ranks the US number 2 in the world when looking at the primary school to the high school. Regarding high schools specifically, the Huffington Post has a good article assessing the literature.

You see here's the problem, he seems like he's looking for a discussion, but he's just gonna dismiss you as someone not worth having a conversation with and only listen to people who already agree with him.

Looks to me like the truth hurts DMB and DS. Wahwahwah kids. America doesn't like standardised testing, the resistance to NGSS and CCS prove this. Funny stuff tbh.
Seems America is doing well to me. Room for a bit of improvement, though. I didn't think we were that high. Thanks for sharing. Looks like I should be a bit more proud about American Educational achievement.
Haha, I guess that's an interesting American mathematical perspective DDM. I would have chosen "of" instead of about... but then I learnt English in the UK.
I'm being mildly disingenuous Beni, but I find the need these kids here have to tell us they are intelligent, when most of them haven't finished school or chosen a path in life is the sort of ludicrous idiocy you could only get on the internet. Especially when most of them can barely string a sentence together.

I dunno, but I'm going back to college and learning German, maybe a BA in German online at Oregon State University, tho I live in the Orlando, FL area. I also went back and took violin lessons. I was originally a piano major and did well in Intro to Music Lit. I was maybe going to take Music Appreciation at a community college in the summer and maybe remedial Intermediate Math online then too, which FAFSA I think pays for or at least loans for, given what I need left to graduate and how many classes I've taken. The Music Appreciation is for my own ego and education.

Also I will point out the influence of sports on the american education system. There are plenty of documentaries out there discussing how higher education is messed up due to sports. Long story short, schools are incentivized to spend A LOT of money on their athletic facilities, programs, etc over academics.
