Is the future Asian?

[The Lawspeaker]

no one is trying to underrate math subjects and arithmetics for God's sake, even those autistic aspergers also may have impressive math results, amazingly highest scores after successful completion of an ordinary test.. but does it change their life at all?










I certainly can't predict the future neither do I have fortune telling abilities, you better take a look at those westerners among the outsiders in your list

so on..


yup man, "the real future is not so Western"

Add to that Eindhoven, Delft and Wageningen in the Netherlands.

Also, don't forget that it is still much more common for East Asians (and other non-Westerners) to study at Western universities than the reverse. Only if Chinese educational institutions start to be held in as high a regard as Western ones, and people will learn Mandarin as often as they learn English or even French or Spanish, can we genuinely talk about Asian dominance.

These three Dutch universities have to be put in the previous list, too. I bet those PISA math masters from East Asian corners would rather spend their "school/college days" somewhere in a western state than anywhere else in order to continue their education programs until they complete properly and yet people like Deneb persistently try to want us to believe in what they actually believe that the third world countries produce a huge amount of high skilled specialists and that the developed world is slowly dying and has no future. Nothing but absurd.. black is black & white is white

My only concern is to have a place to ice skate every year on the lake

[Deneb]

No. Because the Asian figures are bullshit. They only test a couple of top schools and ignore the rest.

Butthurt detected, again…

The SAT is an American entrance exam used by most colleges and universities to make admissions decisions.
The mean score on the math section of the SAT for all test-takers is 511 out of 800, the average scores for blacks (428) and Latinos (457) are significantly below those of whites (534) and Asians (598).
Race gaps on the SATs are especially pronounced at the tails of the distribution. In a perfectly equal distribution, the racial breakdown of scores at every point in the distribution would mirror the composition of test-takers as whole i.e. 51 percent white, 21 percent Latino, 14 percent black, and 14 percent Asian. But in fact, among top scorers—those scoring between a 750 and 800—60 percent are Asian and 33 percent are white, compared to 5 percent Latino and 2 percent black.



Therefore, according to the Americans colleges, the PISA ranking is right.

Fixed: "The real future is not so European"
By the way, American universities are full of Asian students (born in Asia or the US).

[Neogranadino]

Yeah, I guess. That's probably why you see Asian influence on cyberpunk genre.





I don't know how the future will be but yeah, I think we're heading to that kind of dystopia.

We can safely deduce from this that you don't know what you're talking about. Asians are pushed (in their culture) to pass exams and to score the highest mark because those give entry to top universities. After that: it doesn't really matter as the Asian system is the opposite from ours: universities are not really that much about cramming there as ours are and more and more about the reputation they have. Whereas middle school (our period of taking it easy) is their period of working yourself to the bone. I hate to say it .. but it's their version of keeping up with the Jones'es and it's just corrupt as our own ways are. The final results in universities don't matter all that much there as they use the same system as was used here by liberals to get non-deserving kids into university: bribery and donations.

I know that he clearly has never been to Asia.
