OECD PISA 2025: China Leads Math Rankings; India Absent from AssessmentPreviousNext

The OECD's PISA 2025 assessment evaluated over 760,000 15-year-olds from 91 countries in mathematics, reading, and science. China topped the mathematics rankings with a score of 612, followed by Singapore and Macao, with seven Asian nations in the top 10. India did not participate in 2025, so it is absent from the rankings. Overall, OECD countries saw declines in reading and mathematics scores, while science performance remained stable. The report also highlighted increasing numbers of students struggling to meet proficiency levels.
