Is it possible that other countries are fudging their Test scores by allowing only their good students to participate in the test ?

China does it the rich families from Shangai hire tutors specifically for this test and the students are drilled with questions for hours to prepare for this test

Well we did come second from the bottom on the tests though

when we talk about something that happened in 2009, since this is an online exam the first question we have to ask is whether the students got uninterrupted electricity in exam room and internet connection for the full duration of exam.

Explained: What is PISA test and why is it significant?

The Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) is a study done to produce comparable data on education policy and outcomes across countries. What is the aim of the test and how has India performed so far?

Well it looks like some students from chandigarh sat on the 2021 test "since then, India has strayed away from the test until now, for students from Chandigarh will be sitting for the test in 2021. Approximately 1.75 lakh students from government schools in Chandigarh, along with 600 Navodaya Vidyalayas and 3,000 Kendra Vidyalayas will take the three-hour long PISA test in 2021. " Anyone can find the results?

Chandigarh and Hyderabad students should give this Test. They are best performers in JEE.

But why are govt school students participating when we know their quality ? Why not private schools?

But why are govt school students participating when we know their quality ? Why not private schools?

even china is not sending all of china, only select cities.

Banaras and Ujjain are more ancient than Patliputra or Bodhgaya. Either one is a better alternative for an ancient capital of Bharat varsh

Pataliputra based empires were most powerful both financially and militarily they also promoted education research and development that’s why i said Pataliputra

 

[Chandragupt Maurya]

Not related but he makes a good point.

A new capital will spur huge infrastructure development along with employment and finally give us the opportunity to create a clean green City based on dharmic architecture.

It will also help us showcase our real roots to the world.

Our current capital is nothing but a junkyard filled with smog and pollutants filled with retarded people.

Shifting the capital from Delhi to Pataliputra , Bodhgaya or Nalanda will also fix the image of india
people outside india often hyphenate india with Pakistan because the capital city of india is Delhi (which is close to Pakistan) india is very different from Pakistan but Delhi being the capital creates this illusion that india and Pakistan are similar

indonesia has decided to shift the capital from jakarta to nusantara they are reurning to their hindu roots it will also decrease the pressure on jakarta
india should learn and shift the capital to real ancient capital in pataliputra or bodhgaya

Indonesia Names Its New Capital City to Replace Sinking Jakarta

The move to Nusantara will cost roughly $32 billion USD and complete in 2045.

China does it the rich families from Shangai hire tutors specifically for this test and the students are drilled with questions for hours to prepare for this test

Who tell you that?
These tests have nothing related to students' personal career future. No family is interested in preparing their kids for this kind of tests, it is simply waste of time and money.

 

[angryIndian]

I think rural india struggles with a lack of teachers mainly if you look at our syllabus when compared to other countries you can say that Indian kids are taught more difficult stuff earlier mainly in maths we desperately need more teachers and less students ie less students in a class so that the teachers can manage them well instead of having a lot of children in one class

Introducing more difficult stuffs early on is not necessarily a good thing.Rather it's counterproductive as it adds to the higher dropout rates.
What we need is an education system that focuses on skills,creativity and practical application,rather than rote memorization.

Another loss making decacorn

There is a huge bubble in these consumer tech startups. Most of them would fail and only a handful will survive. The hope is that out of those handful a few achieve enough scale to invest in some real proprietary technology.
