    in any case.

    any study that surveys pupil teacher ratios is bull****. That has nothing to do with being smart.

        New Mexico. They messed up the numbering, as there was a tie at 33.

                A few of the criteria have nothing to do with acutal intelligence or beings "smart," like class size as mentioned.

                Very biased all together.

                  Show the bias. Where's the bias? What would you have included to make it less biased?

                    Its more like a scale of education quality, which class size has much to do with.

                      bull**** (as I've said before). Class size has nothing to do with what grades you get or your education level.

                      I'd like to see a survery based on test scores alone. That's all I ask for.

                        So then it really doesn't have much to do with Blacks and Hispanics themselves, but how much each state puts into the education of Blacks and Hispanics.

                        VERTO IS A RACIST! SOUTHERN LEGISLATURES ARE RACIST! (well...it seems to be true)

                            Diss, I work with kids.

                            There is no question--none, zero, period--that kids in smaller classes tend to do better than kids in bigger classes.

                              ahh good example.

                              Tell me how one gets more education in a classroom full of 25 screaming monkeys vs. 50 screaming monkeys?

                              you don't.

                              the reason education sucks in this country is lack of discipline and a culture that no longer values education. Look to Asia for cultures that value education. They rose from nothing to the leaders of the world.

                                out of curiousity, what is the typical class size in Japan? If it is less than the U.S. then I will believe you. It might be less, I've never looked it up.
