World class standards

World class standards refers to the level of achievement, mainly in math and science, attained by students in the four countries that make up the East Asian Tigers; South Korea, Singapore, Japan, and Taiwan, as well as in Europe. There is no published standard, so this is just a concept and object of debate in the US.
