There is a reason Are you smarter than a 5th grader is a show…
Fifth graders are ~10 years old.
From the article: 8% of students are testing this badly on average. France and Germany under 5%, US at 14%
“While countries like Germany and France rang in at under 5 percent, countries like Poland, Israel, and the United States blew the curve at 21, 20, and 14 percent, respectively.”
So US is 14%
Whoops, apologies. Misread the statement initially, but wanted to put the numbers out because the headline implies it’s most students. Edited
No link to study, only to economist (paywall). Ugh.
Stop testing!
