Why is the USA so BTFO by every other country in science even before the Trump administration? How long until this country falls to third world academic stats?
>>
because the US has a culture of ant-intellectualism + awful high school curriculum
>>
>>8667808
because it's only 65% white
>>
>>8667881
only 56% white when you factor in illegals

Oh please go on further on how your dumb question threads and unspecific question expounding coupled with your intro course studies and self-importance puts you in higher regard than a /pol/tard.

I'm not looking for a fight, but if you're in qualifiable research and in good understanding of topics then you're not for this board

That's the /pol/ answer, which only explains why public schools are shit.

When it comes to higher institutions, whites not only still constitute the clear majority in all degree attainment. But also constitute one of the two racial demographics that have STEM degrees in the undergrad, grad and PhD level (the other demographic are asians).

https://nces.ed.gov/programs/digest/d15/tables/dt15_318.45.asp?current=yes

So even with AA, blacks and hispanics rarely if ever cross the double digit threshold, the only exception to this is with associates degrees.

So unless you some how think associate degrees at community colleges and online schools are capable of pulling down science institutions at the undergrad, masters and doctoral level your "muh falling behind because only x% is white" doesn't hold much water.

The truth of the matter is outside medicine, the USA has never outpaced European countries in Academia. And the only reason why they excel at medicine is because money holds a lot of weight in that field.

Daily reminder that if blacks were removed from the USA our average IQ would be tied for third worldwide with Japan.

not funny at all, it's terrible actually

basically SJW.

White jews were the only ones producing shit, with nonjew whites second. Increasing pajeets, chongs and coons only hurted the academic level.
Sad!

This post pretty much sums up and answers OPs bait question "when will the US become a third world country?"

>money holds a lot of weight in that field
Is true about just about every field of scientific advancement nowadays, some more than others. Which means reguardless of how shitty Americans do on tests they will always be the forefront of scientific advancement because they control the money. You could have a billion genius level Pajeets in India, capable of designing faster than light warp drives but, it doesnt matter. A handful of average intelligence scientists in the US have the funding to perform the R&D to create that warp drive. If the US ever fails everyone else will get dragged down with them through their grip on the world economy.

>>8669900

>implying you aren't scrambling to move goal posts so you don't have to admit the asians got you beat

They don't have to be the same country /pol/tard.

You bitched about blacks holding you back so I provided you with what could be one of the most homogeneous white countries on the planet. Said country despite being 94% white still can't get into the top five and once more is actually beat by a less homogeneous white country (Italy).

There's no way to avoid it anon even with a near 100% homogeneous white population East Asian countries still come out on top. You can blame it on the blacks all you want but it won't change the facts.

Let's look at SAT scores for the past 30 years.

https://nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=171

Oh what's this? Blacks on average scored 100 points less than whites in reading, math and writing every single time? But no, there's no way they could negatively impact the US ranking.
>>
>>8668101
This is barely readable.
>>
>>8670397

>having poor reading comprehension

Follow the thread anon, >>8669741 bitched about the black sub-population holding the USA (which at the moment is still a majority white country) back in terms of IQ.

I provided said anon with an example (technically two) of a +90% homogeneous white country. Even without the black sub-population the East Asian countries come out on top.

It doesn't matter about the IQ of African countries because they're not the targeted subjects in question here.

>>8670413

It's okay when the Jews do it.
>>
>>8670429

Get it through your thick skull /pol/tard. Even without blacks white countries still fall behind. Your highest IQ nations Iceland and Italy without a significant population of blacks still CANNOT get into the top five.

It doesn't matter if you bring up IQ or test scores of blacks in USA. Because even if you made them all disappear and homogenized yourselves into an all white country you will still trail behind.

This is explicitly why I bring up Iceland because the original statement falls flat.

volume of journals means fuck all

>US has second largest black population of all non-African countries making up 1/8 of the total population
>SAT scores show a consistent 100 point differential per subject between whites and blacks on average

It is demonstrably true that blacks bring down the overall SAT average.

>US is tied for 9th place overall for IQ
>it's somehow ludicrous to imply that the national average IQ would increase if 13% of the country wasn't dragging it down
>>
>>8667808

Real reason number is high because US universities are worlds best
>>
>>8670448
you're a brainlet

blacks and hispanics are a very small percentage of STEM degrees, so you can't blame them for anything undergrad or higher

Anti-science and anti-authority are inherently American values. The entire idea of "muh freedom" generally means that my opinion is better than your opinion and it's better than objective fact.

If only this thread was about those, you'd be OK right now. But as it stands, you completely failed to address that guy's point.

Because Americans are dumber, have poorer social lives, and are unreasonably nervous/anxious compared to citizens of other OECD nations.

t. American.

Also black people bring down the average, but the trend would still exist without them.

the fact that this is about """universities""", it's not just ethnicity which makes up the scores retard
there is no money in icelandic unis
there is lots of it in america and china and other rich western countries
this whole list is so retarded it's useless to use this to compare the USA to the rest of the world
>oh noes this institution is better than that institution according to some set of rules which have been defined by some institution which you definitely should trust as being objective cuz they definitely don't have monetary interests or anything
they can bullshit whatever they want because just like the media, everyone WILL swallow it.
Why even look at such a list in which some educational institution can drop 10% in score in a single fucking year
what the literal fuck happened to those two institutions in a single fucking year to take so much damage?
>>8667808
>using Trumps name because you know people will take the bait

>implying any poor smart person can go to uni when previous administrations have completely fucked the education system by not letting students default on gov loans and letting unis up their prices knowing that the gov would back students monetarily
Education system in usa is fucked from a lot of sides
some of that is the reason why the US has trouble btfo'ing the rest of the world, which I think a rich western country with 300 million people should be capable of

most scientific research in the US is carried out under corporate or strategic roofs. ie, it's not necessarily published
>>
>>8671750
can you expound on this? im actually interested
>>
>>8671768
the united states spends 600 billion on defense spending. the products, tools and methods developed to necessitate the manufacture of weapon systems do not see the light of day; and therefore cannot be accounted for when counting all publications made by a country.
China, Germany, France, Japan, etc do not spend nearly as much as the US does on this type of defensive research.
additionally, the US is the single largest economy in the world. we have a lot of extremely successful biomed/tech/etc companies. they do not give away all of their trade secrets for free like they would if they published them.

>>8670395
No for real though it's like posting a picture of Hong Kong or Singapore and going "why won't you invite a billion Africans into your country, look how great nonwhites can be"
>>
>>8667808
Because we offer everyone a proper education because we don't believe in the archaic bullshit of success based on how many fairy tales there are about your family. We also don't throw people out of school because they lower out scores too much. US education isn't perfect and we should be open to changer but our scores are so deflated and you bragging that you have fewer poor people in your country (and therefore consider yourself smarter on an individual level) is retarded.
