** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).

* Data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).

** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).

** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).

* Data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).

* PISA 2018 data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).
Notes: Values that are statistically significant are indicated in bold (see Annex A3).
Costa Rica, Georgia, Malta and Moldova conducted the PISA 2009 assessment in 2010 as part of PISA 2009+.

* PISA 2018 data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).
Notes: Values that are statistically significant are indicated in bold (see Annex A3).
Costa Rica, Georgia, Malta and Moldova conducted the PISA 2009 assessment in 2010 as part of PISA 2009+.

* PISA 2018 data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).
Notes: Values that are statistically significant are indicated in bold (see Annex A3).
Costa Rica, Georgia, Malta and Moldova conducted the PISA 2009 assessment in 2010 as part of PISA 2009+.

1. The average 3-year trend is the average change, per 3-year period, between the earliest available measurement in PISA and PISA 2018, calculated by a linear regression.
2. Curvilinear trends in performance are computed only for countries with comparable data in more than four PISA assessments. Curvilinear trends are calculated by a regression of performance over both linear and quadratic (squared) terms of the gap between the year of assessment and 2018. The coefficient for the linear term represents the annual rate of change in 2018, while the coefficient for the quadratic term represents the acceleration or deceleration of the change in performance.
* PISA 2018 data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).
Notes: Values that are statistically significant are indicated in bold (see Annex A3).
Albania, Argentina, Bulgaria, Chile, Indonesia, the Republic of North Macedonia, Peru and Thailand conducted the PISA 2000 assessment in 2001, Hong Kong (China), Israel and Romania conducted the assessment in 2002, as part of PISA 2000+. Costa Rica, Georgia, Malta and Moldova conducted the PISA 2009 assessment in 2010 as part of PISA 2009+.
Estimates of the average 3-year trend and the curvilinear trend for these countries consider the year in which the assessment was conducted.

1. The average 3-year trend is the average change, per 3-year period, between the earliest available measurement in PISA and PISA 2018, calculated by a linear regression.
2. Curvilinear trends in performance are computed only for countries with comparable data in more than four PISA assessments. Curvilinear trends are calculated by a regression of performance over both linear and quadratic (squared) terms of the gap between the year of assessment and 2018. The coefficient for the linear term represents the annual rate of change in 2018, while the coefficient for the quadratic term represents the acceleration or deceleration of the change in performance.
* PISA 2018 data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).
Notes: Values that are statistically significant are indicated in bold (see Annex A3).
Costa Rica, Georgia, Malta and Moldova conducted the PISA 2009 assessment in 2010 as part of PISA 2009+.
Estimates of the average 3-year trend and the curvilinear trend for these countries consider the year in which the assessment was conducted.

1. The average 3-year trend is the average change, per 3-year period, between the earliest available measurement in PISA and PISA 2018, calculated by a linear regression.
2. Curvilinear trends in performance are computed only for countries with comparable data in more than four PISA assessments. Curvilinear trends are calculated by a regression of performance over both linear and quadratic (squared) terms of the gap between the year of assessment and 2018. The coefficient for the linear term represents the annual rate of change in 2018, while the coefficient for the quadratic term represents the acceleration or deceleration of the change in performance.
* PISA 2018 data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).
Notes: Values that are statistically significant are indicated in bold (see Annex A3).
Costa Rica, Georgia, Malta and Moldova conducted the PISA 2009 assessment in 2010 as part of PISA 2009+.
Estimates of the average 3-year trend and the curvilinear trend for these countries consider the year in which the assessment was conducted.

1. The average 3-year trend is the average change, per 3-year-period, between the earliest available measurement in PISA and PISA 2018, calculated by a linear regression.
* PISA 2018 data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).
Notes: Values that are statistically significant are indicated in bold (see Annex A3).
Albania, Argentina, Bulgaria, Chile, Indonesia, the Republic of North Macedonia, Peru and Thailand conducted the PISA 2000 assessment in 2001, Hong Kong (China), Israel and Romania conducted the assessment in 2002, as part of PISA 2000+. Costa Rica, Georgia, Malta and Moldova conducted the PISA 2009 assessment in 2010 as part of PISA 2009+.
Estimates of the average 3-year trend and the curvilinear trend for these countries consider the year in which the assessment was conducted.

1. The average 3-year trend is the average change, per 3-year-period, between the earliest available measurement in PISA and PISA 2018, calculated by a linear regression.
* PISA 2018 data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).
Notes: Values that are statistically significant are indicated in bold (see Annex A3).
Costa Rica, Georgia, Malta and Moldova conducted the PISA 2009 assessment in 2010 as part of PISA 2009+.
Estimates of the average 3-year trend and the curvilinear trend for these countries consider the year in which the assessment was conducted.

1. The average 3-year trend is the average change, per 3-year-period, between the earliest available measurement in PISA and PISA 2018, calculated by a linear regression.
* PISA 2018 data did not meet the PISA technical standards but were accepted as largely comparable (see Annexes A2 and A4).
** The data for Viet Nam have not yet been fully validated. Due to a lack of consistency in the response pattern of some performance data, the OECD cannot yet assure full international comparability of the results (see Annexes A2 and A4).
Notes: Values that are statistically significant are indicated in bold (see Annex A3).
Costa Rica, Georgia, Malta and Moldova conducted the PISA 2009 assessment in 2010 as part of PISA 2009+.
Estimates of the average 3-year trend and the curvilinear trend for these countries consider the year in which the assessment was conducted
