India fares poorly in global learning study

Indian education system can be summed up as mugging up important questions from guess book night before the exam and vomiting it out in answer sheets next day.Thats why most of the indian projects fails even if one had to spoon feed indian scientist into making a simple wheel.

Are you really indian? Some of my best friends were educated in India and they speak and are more educated and in the premier league of their proffession - please dont generalize. There is good and bad everywhere and recent medical advancements have been shining through from India that the world is taking advantage of.

eduction is an issue in our neighbourhood and its down to our leaders not paying enough attention to it. I say we should put all our leaders on a bonfire and burn them. I am impressed with chinese they seem to hav been more successful

Earlier data on a different test called TIMMS in 2003 similarly showed that India ranked 46 on a list of 51 countries. India's score was 392 versus avg of 467. It was conducted in Orissa and Rajasthan and the students performed very poorly. It was contained in a report titled "India Shining and Bharat Drowning"

These results are not only a wake-up call for the "India Shining" brigade, but also raise serious questions about the credibility of India's western cheerleaders like Indian-American journalist Fareed Zakaria and New York Times' columnist Tom Friedman.
