ill be entirely honest and say that I dont know anything about asian test scores but it actually makes sense that minority asians in first world nations would score better on average than those in their home country as countries like the US and most western EU countries are massive brain drains and usually attract the smartest and most ambitious

>White Americans score better on PISA tests than Europeans
nope

white americans score worse than: estonia, finland, liechtenstein, polan, netherelands, switzerland (all of these countries don't have segregated values against which you're comparing for immigrant populations so your claim is double-, maybe even triple tier bullshit)

>Asian Americans score better than most Asian nations.
nope

they score worse than shanghai, singapore, hong kong, yet at the same level than japan, korea, taipei, so no, they score about the same as real asian students

More than 50% of PhD students in STEM subjects at American universities are foreign born(even higher at pure Ivy League schools).

American universities don't primarily recruit their brightest heads domestically because your secondary education system is failing you.

Stop posting that shit map. It means literally nothing. English speaking universities are privileged in global rankings because English is the lingua franca.

Yeah, the PISA is not an IQ test. Do you know what an IQ test is? PISA is a standardized test measuring basic high school skills which is extensively prepared for by fifteen year olds to compare education policies between countries. It doesn't measure intelligence, it measures the effectiveness of secondary education systems. Clearly you do not have a very high IQ because I shouldn't have to explain this

That depends on what you mean by "college", which is the problem and this push to just go for "something" or your going to be living under an overpass.

Most people would be better off becoming an electrician or plumber than getting some meme liberal arts degree where if you're lucky you get some shitty paying job with social services.
These general terms like "college" and "education" are thrown around all the time but there is a massive difference between doing a STEM degree vs a humanities degree.
The majority of college attendees these days are women doing joke degrees, most men who don't think they can deal with the amount of math and shit it takes to get most good degree just become an electrician, plumber, HVAC guy and wind up making 50k+ a year pretty fast that way.

If understanding our place and purpose in the universe isn't the most important thing ever then what is?

Hell you could even say that since human got sapience it's our innate purpose to try to understand everything around us. In turn making science the most important thing to us at the core of our being. We always seperate ourselves from animals because we can understand our surroundings on a deeper level. Thus the only reason we aren't animals is because we have the ability to conduct science and use that to bend the rules of nature and reality to our will.

immigrant here as well and you are full of shit.
i am actually russian and there is a meme about "russian education" which is total bullshit. public schools here vary in quality.
also, in some european cunts, "dumb" kids and "geniuses" get segregated early and go to separate high schools. here everyone goes to the same school. yes, it is the same physical building but everyone picks their own classes. so if you are dumb you can totally avoid difficult stuff. but if you are smart and want to study, there are tons of resources to help you succeed. it is just a different system. nothing wrong with that.

actually i think 4k res is detrimental to learning calclulus, particularly limits.
you will keep zooming in, but you will never get to see the infinitely small delta due to hi res. so you will get confused and chimp out and smash the fucking flat screen with a baseball bat.

>"geniuses" get segregated early and go to separate high schools
Aside from Special Ed (which Americans have too) and sometimes even-level classes (which means in High School the strongest kids study in the strongest class), we don't have much differences.

The difference is that American curriculum is decided at the state-level, and sometimes the state representatives are notoriously corrupted by private-school money. Search about Betsy Devos.

You can't really learn well when there is one underpaid, underqualified teacher for 30 students and said teacher has literally no hierarchy behind him, "muh niggers" or not
"muh minorities" is just a convenient excuse for failing public services.

are you talking about france?
what about germany or nethelands?
i am pretty sure the concept of gymnasium exists in other countries as well

>curriculum is decided at the state-level,
i don't know the details so i am not going to argue about that. but can't you understand that if you get to pick your own classes according to your own "track", you essentially build your own curriculum? you can even take AP classes for college credits. to me it is totally irrelevant who creates the list of available classes as long as i can pick everything i need. does that make sense? also, you can always pick a better school by moving to a better neighborhood. it works really well here: good schools attract more affluent residents, making the area better and safer and so more people want to move there, and schools get better etc.

Well you just described my observations perfectly. American schools allow you to avoid math, science and whatever you "fear" which is why so many grow up and dont know anything about these subjects.

France, yes.
There are 3 categories, General Bac, Technical Bac, Professional (= vocational) Bac.

But even within the General Bac classes, sometimes you subdivide between the good and the bad.

ah sure the average adult around the world surely remembers high school math and organic chemistry he took for 5 years some 20 years ago (and cheated on tests too which is commonplace russia). let's face it, if you don't go to college, you will lose all your "knowledge" in a year or so. hey there are also tons of college grads with meme degrees who will never work in their field of study and forget everything they learned.

America is pretty good for elite training and do have the best unis in the world.
We're talking about the average level of education, how educated is the everyman. In this regard America is a lot worse than Europe.
Even culturally you look down on knowledge and learning.

PISA is pretty much rigged to make Hong-Kong and the rest score better.

That's what /int/ wants you to believe.
The average European is dumb as fuck because people are stupid in general.
But surely you can cherry pick and find some anecdotal evidence on both sides.
>>
>>76945031
Yes, cherry picking cities is unfair.

that's why there are so many different "sources" and ways to gather and interpret them

And don't forget that PISA is not the only international student assessment study out there, there is also TIMSS which indicates that American students perform better than most European ones.

Those other countries don't have to deal with immigrants and other groups of people who just end up lowering the scores.

America is also huge, with many different states.
Taking averages of the entirety of America is like trying to find the average EU scores.

Southern scores take down scores from the northeast, just like eastern europeans underperform western europeans.

If you were to just take the north east, education scores would rise to about nordic levels almost.

Most public education funding is done by the states.

Not every state is as rich as you think.
>>
>>76948810
Which is why being unitary instead of federative and having a national curriculum has its advantages.

School here are also funded partly by départements, mainly infrastructure. The state pay the teachers and give bonuses for teachers in hard zones.
>>
>>76913381
Considering that we didn't ban fucking lead products until the 70s, yes.
>>
>>76947542
by that logic there is no such thing as "average American" since they have many more states than you listed which have their own laws and regulations and culture

By the way, how does a woman who wants to get rid of public education get appointed to do public education.

Basically everyone trump appointed to department heads hate their own departments. Rick perry wanted to get rid of the department of energy now he heads it. The head of the environmental protection agency doesn't believe in climate change. Trump's pick of secretary of labor was going to be the fucking former CEO of a fast food chain who didn't believe in min wage and unions. They basically want to tear up any aspect of the state that isn't defense.

how come there is little correlation between various test scores and GDP of those countries? in other words, if you are smart why aren't you first world yet? does that have anything to do with cherry picking students who take those tests?

>systems are not bad.
nobody's system is "bad". it is all memes.

An American state isn't a country you fucking moron. Otherwise we'd have to say there's no average German and we'd have to compare teh score of Germany per Bundeslände
