We have heard for some time now that the education system in the US is "failing". No doubt there is room for improvement as there always is. But if the education system is such a failure, then why are our universities dominating the rankings? The Academic Ranking of World Universities (which is a Chinese organization by the way), The QS World University Rankings, and the Times Higher Education-QS World University Rankings, are all completely dominated by US universities, in every single statistic. And our citizens also have the highest rate of secondary education attainment in the world. So, what gives?
There are too many sources to post here but all the information is available at the respective organization website.
EDIT: And here are some statistics in regards to K-12 education. http://nasspblogs.org/principaldiffe..._stupid_1.html
