I did.
Mr. Schneider, however, noted some factors that may have influenced the outcome.
For one thing, Shanghai is a huge migration hub within China. Students are supposed to return to their home provinces to attend high school, but the Shanghai authorities could increase scores by allowing stellar students to stay in the city, he said. And Shanghai students apparently were told the test was important for China’s image and thus were more motivated to do well, he said.
Shanghai pop.: 19,000,000+
Finland pop.: 5,500,000+
Hong Kong pop.: 7,000,000+
The population of Shanghai exceeds the total population of NY, LA, CHI, HOU, and PHX combined.
Which student sample would you say is more diverse?
