Constantly, we are told in America that our education "ranking" is slipping, going down to 18th, 20th, 30th or whatever. I really didn't understand what this was based off of. Are people in India learning at triple the rate we are? What do these rankings mean, and what makes up a 1st rate education system, and why is America not considered a country which offers this?

The first source I looked at took me a while to find. I searched for a good amount of time, trying to find who exactly was deciding which country ranked where. Eventually I found the Educational Policy PDF report on educational quality and accessibility from 2005.
