    Well that’s worse than I thought it would be. And judging from the graph at the bottom, it’s not just a US only issue. Many other major countries (Germany, Denmark, England) have basically the same score.

    The scores for the top countries (Japan and Finland) don’t seem that high either (US had 270, Japan had 296), but I might be underestimating how much improvement that score change represents. Edit: was re-reading the article, and the literacy score is out of 500. So 296 as a score still has a long way to go.
