The Ten Most Educated Countries in the World

A nation of eggheads:

1. Canada
> Pct. population with postsecondary education: 50%
> Avg. annual growth rate (1999 – 2009): 2.3% (5th lowest)
> GDP per capita: $39,070 (10th highest)
> Pop. change (2000 – 2009): 9.89% (10th highest)

In Canada, 50% of the adult population has completed tertiary education, easily the highest rate in the OECD. Each year, public and private expenditure on education amount to 2.5% of GDP, the fourth-highest rate in the world. Tertiary education spending accounts for 41% of total education spending in the country. In the U.S., the proportion is closer to 37%. In Israel, the rate is 22%. In Canada, nearly 25% of students have an immigrant background.

I wonder what each country's results would be less the MBA, an American innovation that has yet to complete its entrenchment in every corner of the globe. There's an enormous amount of advertising here for those.

ALSO EVERYONE FROM EVERY OTHER COUNTRY IS STUPID. There, I said it.
