OECD Survey of Adult Skills: Where the US Stands

"The survey focuses on three types of skills: numerary, literacy, and problem-solving. The skills tend to be correlated across categories: that is, if a country is good at one skill, it tend to be good at others. Here’s a figure showing numeracy and literacy scores. As you can see, the US falls well below average on numeracy scores, and slightly below average on literacy."
