Who can really say what it all means though? The presentation itself was adding more evidence to the uncertainty that we will be facing, even in the near future.

@Ryu:

Yeah, pretty much.

I already knew most of this in general, just not with hard numbers, but I lol'd at the last one.

@Japan:

See, my high school was continuously recognized for being an excelling school. My class of 2008 had more students with 4.0 or higher GPAs than kids failing a class. (I had a 4.3)

We were insanely smart.

@Kimmeh:

Tell me about it. My high school was a major joke. One of my English classes only read and studied one book all semester. Now that is sad.

Ho'shiat at the part about there being more honors kids in India than there are kids in the US.

That should tell us something.

"What does this all mean?"
...we're are all screwed.

That was awesome. I esp. liked the part about how kids are being prepared for jobs that do not yet exist. That helps explain why colleges don't let students take classes in only one academic discipline--because the future is too uncertain to take that kind of risk.
