Primarily Homogeneous vs. Primarily Heterogeneous

These stats are like crack cocaine to lobbyist pimping new "educational" ideas like common core for instance.

"Hey Mr. or Ms. politician critter/Department of Education drone, look how these Asian/European countries are putting a beat-down on American kids."

A rational political creature would insist on comparing Asian countries to Asian Americans. Dutch vs. Dutch Americans, Germans to German Americans etc... before disrupting a positive time tested curriculum. p

Of course that is "racist".

Without having exactly the same testing across all national boundaries these charts are crap.

And since US edumacashun standards are so dismal why would foreigners come to the next step up in that racket-— American universities?

The clear Big School solution to problems here in the US is obvious though——MO’ MONEY!
