Just a reminder to everybody laughing about American education: we are smarter than you. We have the best universities on the planet, have the most living Nobel Prize winners of any nation, and are responsible for countless inventions and scientific and intellectual accomplishments which your lives depend on every day. We earned the position of world's most intelligent nation through the American education system and the imperial measurement system, and we will keep this position through these .

>muh immigrants
>muh per capita

Sorry but these are invalid arguments. The intellectual power of the United States of America is stronger than any of your nations, bar none. Immigrants who choose to make use of our superior universities and higher education system usually become American citizens in order to work alongside their American genius friends and colleagues, making them just as American as me or any of my countrymen. I understand that this might make some of you feel inadequate, so you pick on nonexistent SJW classes that, while retarded, are offered to students because America is a land of freedom to learn anything you choose no matter what. This is our strength, and this is what makes us better than you.

America out

we are really good at getting the best immigrants and funding their research but our k-12 education system is pathetic and you can't deny this.

It's just you guys like to spam citations. The ranking isn't majority about the education quality, rather the number of citations and awards you guys shit out. Same goes for why Karolinska institutet is the "best" medical school because they give out the Nobel prize for medicine and shit out lots of citations.

There are no Americans at American top universities.

I repeat, there are no Americans at American top universities.

It could be better, but keep in mind it's still one of the best in the world. The countries who outpace in k-12 are much smaller, and don't have to deal with things like state's rights, etc. Any country with a strong, federalized system of government will always outpace USA in k-12 education. Aka, like the East Asian and European countries who outrank USA in k-12

Singapore, for example, is a city state. It doesn't have the enormous supply of wage slaves that America has. If NYC were a city state like Singapore, it would smash it to bits.

i noticed you slipped in a little comment about the imperial measurement system. I think we need to have a talk...

even U.S. scientists don't use the imperial system. it has been proven time and again to be an inadequate tool

Yeah, the US just manipulates citations! Never mind the fact that things like CRISPR, the internet, stem cell therapy, and a huge chunk of other breakthrough techs were discovered, spearheaded, or developed here, it's all a ruse!

interestingly, lack of regulations may be why the US outpaces the rest of the world in scientific discovery. For example animal research rights are much less stringent in the US than in the EU.

However this is also probably why k-12 is terribad.

You are an idiot. This is so easy to verify and yet you still got it wrong.
