A new study carried out by the university scholarships platform Scholaroo reveals the states with the highest and lowest levels of education in the country and places Florida as the third state with the least educated population and the lowest educational levels. The list is led by Massachusetts, Minnesota and Connecticut.
To determine the states with the most and the least educationanalysts compared the 50 states on two key elements: the number of people who successfully completed their studies and the quality of educational institutions.
They evaluated each state based on 19 relevant metrics ranging from learning ratio, literacy rate, number of colleges, college graduation rate to best and worst school systems.
According to the research, the “Sunshine State” ranked 48th, with a total score of 42 on a scale in which 100 represents the best educational conditions. Which indicates that Florida fell 12 places, compared to the first edition of the company’s report.
Florida had the lowest percentage of adults with partial college experience in the entire country. It also has the lowest number of apprentices per 100,000 inhabitants and the eighth lowest percentage of high school graduates going directly to university.
