        Considering Trump's huge number of fans, it's a safe bet that American students are simply undereducated. #ImpeachTrump so we can actually #MAGApic.twitter.com/Q32ATu5feV

        People whose opinions differ from yours are undereducated? That's an arrogant stance to take.

        Maybe "they don't try as hard on tests" because they know THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO GO TO COLLEGE!https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/03/tax-reform-hits-college-endowments-and-maybe-tuition-and-scholarships.html …

        Well to be fair teacher put a lot of pressure on students for taking their standardized tests, but I doubt they do the same for PISA.

        Maybe the public schools just are not very good and thats why US kids don't do well. Don't private schools perform better than public?

        "I just wasn't trying hard, thats why I didn't test well." Is the lamest excuse. My kid better not ever try this one.

        They do poorly on tests b/c we have elected officials who still believe the earth is flat or only 10,000 years old.

        That has nothing to do with why kids would do poorly on tests. I don't hear any teachers pushing that idea out to their class.

        It was a comment on the path this country is taking away from the value on education and an emphasis on science

        Maybe there are, it might just be that I've never experienced it first hand.
