I am studying physics, but am currently on a job placement with some researchers as an assistant, and some of the work I am doing will most likely be put into a paper next year. Having stuff like that on a resume will help me a lot when I go to find a job after graduation, in fact I doubt I will have too much trouble compared to other graduates. Also, very importantly, you get paid while you work, which mean I will have barely any debt after graduation.
You should measure the intensity of study among those countries. student in Japan and Korean need to study twice as much as time everyday as they spent in Canada or America when they were high school or middle school. Grade 9 American math level is probably equals to grade 5 in South Korea.
Also a country that has a population of 325 millions, a lot of illegal aliens and a lot of people from different cultures. Not like Norway that has a population of 4 million, and probably less than 100 thousand immigrants .

THIS IS TOTAL BS! I studied in Japan since 14 and their education system isn’t great. This is accurate if you’ll count the population of people who have degrees and have higher education. However, if you’ll count the QUALITY of education, I strongly believe that they’re pretty much behind from the Nordic countries.! Old traditional education which only trains children to be slaves to society. Ask them an opinion about something and they can’t even strongly support their own opinions and beliefs. This isn’t what education should be.
In Canada, access to education is very easy as long you are willing to study. The government provides a funding by means of loan to every individual who is willing to learn and pay later.. I love Canada.
Someone who Completed a higher education program doesn't necessarily mean he/she is more educated then say someone who has a high school diploma it depends on the quality of education not the level only

It just means they have great test-taking skills 😉
Exactly, some of the worlds greatest minds didn't even have a 3rd grade education
Canada's graduates are just Liberal Arts degree holder. That's why underemployment is high.
We need more people to get into trades.
I believe this. I am Canadian and have a masters degree. Everyone I know is highly educated. It is very uncommon to see high school drop outs. Most people go to post secondary school or trade school. The debt part is true as well. I still haven’t paid back all my school loans.
I'm at McGill and it's ok .
Why'd you go to Queens? 'Cause you couldn't get into McGill.
@@Benjiefrenzy hahahahahaha , you made my day .
@More On Charvaka We have someone who went to Queens
Most educated countries are those who don't have criminals packed in prisons and don't have streets full of homeless (zero poverty) . Help lifting up humanity 🙏🙏🙏
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO CANADA!
I always cut classes together with my classmates and play billiard when i was in high school.

How is Korea the third largest economy in Asia, is this video nuts or something?
Yea it should be fourth after, China, Japan, India.
@@Bobbly_bobbby They may be using nominal Dollar GDP values instead of purchasing power thought even in that case i would think India should come out ahead of South-Korea.

Even the Arabs in Israel are educated. In fact there more Arabs in Israel with higher education than any country in the Arab world. :-)
Yep - only country with no mention of mental illness, suicide or student debt.

What about it ??
I disagree with this list and think the research needed more research, you forget countries such as Germany and Finland that rank highly in education and produce low debt to minimal debt for those that finish higher education, then find good paying jobs afterwards.
O Canada ;)
@More On Charvaka They don't have to pay any taxes and they get free government paid University or college education. They even have their own councilors representation in government and their traditional custom are present in government and Olympic ceremony (When Canada host). Yet indigenous people are still struggling and they still have high suicide rate and crime rate. This is not Canada fault that is their fault. The older people of the indigenous population are letting the youth down and that is why they are struggling.
Look at the high cost of being the most "educated" countries in the world: debts, stress, and suicides.
Norway?
This list is based on the number of years of attendance, it doesn’t measure the quality or type of that education. This might explain both the anomaly of the US being so high and of the Scandinavian countries being absent.
Could you cover how Jordan despite its location. Has managed to be one of the most stable nation's in the Middle East.
basically its stable because it has no oil lol
It is a dictatorship... pretty simple, and a very backwards one
Omg Finland already proved to be the best education in the world with their no homework system why can't we do it too???
China , Japan , India and then south Korea it's 4 the largest economy not third
But South Korea is infinite times better than India on almost every basis. Barring suicide rates in all other basis S Korea are much sophisticated and educated and matured than Indians.
@@berk835 I'm a Chinese and according to International monetary fund India is the 3rd largest economy (GDP PPP) in the world after. The video made the error by saying South Korea is the 3rd largest economy of Asia. Largest economies of Asia is China followed by Japan, India
@@berk835 still it doesn't change the fact that India is the third largest economy even though south Korea people have better living standards
do you forget the US?
@More On Charvaka ok my bad i didn't see that part
Japan has the second best education but does not learn about what they did to the Chinese in ww2.
Singapore.
Too small
This is garbage. Because someone completed a higher education program, doesn't mean the program was a good one. I taught American exchange students in London University and was appalled by their ignorance.

@@BuRsTiNxMLB we dont want the money and we live in peace. we fight to save our civilians life.

Is it a country

You could have dig deeper on your research. Where are those Scandinavian countries?
South Korea is 4th largest economy in Asia
Highly educated people working under a dropout 🤣
fake information .... the host needs vigilant research
It's kind of hard to get a feel for the comparison if you're using percentages of different sized age groups in each country.
is using OECD data (completion of higher ed programs) the most reliable way to rank countries in terms of educatedness? does the data measure knowledge of current affairs?
Fun fact: The US is also the top nation with higher educated people incarcerated and/or shot.
China may as well be the top, they send people who disagree with the government to labor camps. But you won't see that number ever because of government suppression, and or the government not caring...
Singapore, China & some of the Scandinavian countries are missing in the list..😅
Check the PISA study and educate yourself.
Other than that nice video,good topic🙋🏻♂️
Korea is in the video
Kosu Kim my bad thanks.
holding master degree, working at KFC
WERE IS AUSTRALIA SHOULD BE IN TOP 5 ??
You did not define "a higher education program", so you are comparing apples, oranges, and pomegranates.
"America is the most educated country "
*X DOUBT*
Who said it was the most? The video ranked it as the 5th
I'm disappointed they only showed percantages. A country with a lower percentage rate but double the student population of other countries might be a context worth knowing? Plus knowing the type of degree too, arts vs. science would have been nice to know.
