No. Evolution is not a race to a goal. Species change to become more adapted to their environments, whatever that change may require. Something that evolves faster merely changes more over time; it is not at any point more or less highly evolved than it's ancestors, simply more suited to it's current environment. What is more "highly evolved" is a philosophical question, not a scientific one.
It is possible that Humans are evolvion more slowly because we can change our environments to suit ourselves, thus lessening the need for our species to change.
