Finland ranked first in literacy, with Japan taking second place and Sweden third. In numeracy, Finland also claimed the top position, followed again by Japan and Sweden. For problem-solving skills, Finland shared the number one spot with Japan.

The Survey of Adult Skills measured adults‘ proficiency in literacy, numeracy and the ability to solve problems. The study covered 31 countries, with the last assessment of adult skills conducted over a decade ago.

The results, from the 2023 survey, showed an average Finnish score of 296, well above the 260-point average across 31 countries, and exceeding Finland’s score of 288 points in 2013.

Jiihaa, torille!

Go the young crew, stay sharp
