KS Country Stats

In the course of carrying out multiple thousands of skills assessments in recent years, we have gathered a wide range of fascinating and useful user demographic data. In the months ahead, we will be presenting a range of information, which can be used for measuring, comparing and benchmarking performance.

Let's take a look at some overall aggregate score data, across a number of different KS library test topics, on a country vs country basis. Numbers of test scores vary, so this list does not imply that one country is 'better' than another, per se. It's just interesting to see what kind of data is generated in different parts of the globe.
