The US has extreme outliers, but it’s mean and median are below other nations.
- mruts 8y agoMaybe you can’t have both? I don’t know, but that sounds possible? An example is putting stupid kids with smart kids in the same class. The stupid kids probably benefit but the smart kids are probably hurt.

This is ignoring the huge baseline variance in quality, due to funding and cultural variations.
