The #PISA2018 results are out. Generally, countries scored within an expected range given their past records. Except one. The scores are astonishing for B-S-J-G, an acronym for the four Chinese provinces that participated (Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, and Guangdong). Out of 77 international systems, B-S-J-G scored number one in all three subjects: reading, math, and science. Scores increased dramatically from 2015-2018. In fact, the gains are so large that they are bound to raise eyebrows.
