mistermahn: In case you dont know. Nigerians are the most educated Africans in America,the UK and even China. I think the reason this is so is because 1 in every 5 africans is a Nigerian. Nigerians might most probably be the most educated people on earth but Nigerians are just scattered everywhere in the world
Why dont u say nigerians in nigeria?

I'm shocked that UK made the list, and more shocked that Nigeria didn't make the list.

I just opened ur post history and you are the reason why Nigeria didn't make the list. Effing gormless olodo like yourself that can't spell nor make a remotely intelligent sentence/comment suggesting about being shocked one country that should be at least number 2 made the list; and another one that shouldn't be top 50 isn't there. Isn't the avg IQ of Nigerians 70?

The only country that shouldn't be there is America. The ignorance in this country is alarming. Cuba, Luxembourg, Switzerland, and Australia are better educated than them. Poland should also be higher on the list, top 7 maybe.

Titiluvly: 5. Sweden, 63.7
Sweden’s access to basic knowledge index is 63.7. The index for the country’s women’s mean years in school comes in at 61.5, secondary enrollment is at 60.5, primary enrollment is 58.9, and adult literacy is 57.5. According to the Swedish Education Act, every child and young person should have equal access to education regardless of socio-economic status. Education is compulsory for every child in the country from age of 6 or 7. The compulsory education includes special schools and programmes, which are designed for students who suffer from intellectual and physical disabilities. High school is compulsory up to age 15 or 16 and it’s also offered for free. According to the OECD research, Sweden spends more than the average country on its education system, spending about 6.7% of its national budget on education as of the end of the last decade.


4. United Kingdom, 64.0
The United Kingdom’s access to basic knowledge index is 64.0. The index of women’s mean years in school in the UK is at 60.7, secondary enrollment is 62.2, primary enrollment is 59.1, and adult literacy is 57.5. Students in the United Kingdom can either attend state schools – which are free – or independent schools that charge fees. The law requires students to go through full-time education until they are 16 years old and in the UK, financial incentives are offered to teenagers who continue in education after the age of 16 to prepare them for higher education or employment.


3. Republic of Korea, 64.2
Korea’s access to basic knowledge index is 64.2. The women’s mean years in school index is at a very strong 63.6, secondary enrollment is at 61.3, primary enrollment is at 57.9, and the adult literacy index comes in at 56.8. Education is compulsory for all children in Korea. The country offers free education for all children who are between 6 and 15 years old and high school students who are between 15 and 18 years have to pay tuition, which is subsidized by the government. Extra-curricular study and parental participation in their children’s education is considered essential, with ‘self-study’ sessions common. The citizens spend a lot of money on education compared with other countries. Koreans spend a huge 15% of the country’s GNP and 22% of their household incomes on education. However, while Korea’s education system has been praised it’s also been noted that it’s an enormously competitive environment, a factor which has been cited as a factor in the high suicide rate among Korea’s youth.


2. Japan, 64.7
Japan’s access to basic knowledge index is 64.7. The country’s education system is nationalized and the curriculum is developed by the Japanese Ministry of Education. Elementary and junior high school is compulsory in the country, where students must spend six years in elementary and at least three years in junior high. The nationalized system ensures that all students get an equal education; but it has been said that a lot of pressure is put on students to achieve highly in the university entrance exam at age 18, forcing a sort of meritocracy based on university degrees. For its provision of basic education, though, Japan still ranks as one of the most successful countries in the world.


1. Canada, 65.0
Canada’s access to basic knowledge index is at an unprecedented 65.0. Its secondary enrollment is 60.7, primary enrollment is 59.1, and adult literacy is 57.5. Canada’s education system is controlled by the different provinces, and the federal government does not regulate education – there is no national, centralised curriculum in Canada, meaning education can vary widely between the various territories. Public education is available for free for every Canadian who meets the residence and age requirements. Pre-elementary education is offered by local authorities, but it’s not compulsory. Elementary education is compulsory and it can either start at age 5 or 6 and until age 16 or 18 depending on the jurisdiction. Secondary education is also compulsory and it takes between four and six years. The country’s comprehensive education system has created one of the most skilled labor forces in the world; Canada’s strong economy and competitive industries can likely be attributed, at
least in part, to a strong, functioning system of basic education despite very little hands-on involvement from the national government.

Pls where is Switzerland And Denmark And probably Russia??

Au fait. Tried to impress and sound half-baked, to undo what is telling in your post history but came up short and still uneducated. Olodo like you.

It seems you have gone barmy like the obviously deranged donkey that just back from a bender, you exemplify with your below average IQ. Tried too hard but failed again. I cry I cry.

Ms. Potty, you can go starkers for all I care and I won't stare at you twice. My preference in women is my preference, and whoever I choose to dig my todger into is none of your business. Effing stroppy uneducated azz sounding like a slob high on excessive wacky backy.
