9. Finland
Like Germany, Finland invested a lot of money in R&D and ancillary services, as well as in vocational training. Overall, the country spent just a little more than Germany per student ($10,905 USD) which accounted for 28 percent of its GDP per capita. Finland has one of the lowest student-teacher ratios, which might be the secret for its high PISA results – with an average score of 519, it is 12th overall. And even more importantly, Finland ranks #2 in KEI with 9.33.
