OECD - Top-performer Finland Improves Further in PISA Survey as Gap Between Countries Widens

If you are as interested as me, on how did my cty perform in this
test, click below to read the URL, unfortunately Singapore did not
take part in test, would be interested to see how well we do in this test, as I am always under the impression that we do well in global maths and science, as years
of promotion on our newspapers tell me. Well maybe not me, but the
rest of the young pple hehe.OECD Report

Its also interesting to note that the news articles that flow from
every country following the publishing of this report, there is much
disappointment in Japanese youth performances, saying that they have
slipped from the top spot or so, but hello? they are still within the
top few of the each criteria. On the other hand, the Australian
newspapers have been reporting gd news for being among the top rung of
the ladder, though still ranked lower than Japan. Reminds me of the
asian competitive mentality, that 2nd best is still not gd enough.:P
all those stressful childhood memories for my friends, not me, from
their parents.
