American students are still falling behind Europe and Asia in math and science, according to international test results released yesterday. Fourth-graders tested closer to the top students in reading and made some advancement on math since 2007, but other scores were statistically the same. In math and fourth-grade science, South Korea and Singapore were top-ranked. Eighth-grade science was led by Singapore and Taiwan. American fourth-graders were 11th in math and seventh in science; eighth-graders were ninth in math and 10th in science. -- source link
