        @danceoval @Rory_Kay @JonFRice A ranking's "skew" doesn't make it irrelevant- America still has an education problem, even if MA does well

        @BBCBreaking @timdwalk why does Shanghai get to stand on its own. Shanghai vs. Manhattan, who wins?

        @BBCBreaking Shanghai is not a fair comparison given the high number of well-funded international schools. What about the whole of China?
