Pakistan is ranked 136th in education, according to the Education Rankings by Country 2024 from World Population Review.
Understanding Pakistan's Education Rank
Based on the latest data for 2024, Pakistan holds the 136th position in global education rankings. This ranking, specifically the "WT20 2024 Education Rank," is provided by sources like World Population Review, which compiles various metrics to assess educational standing across countries.
Pakistan's reported adult literacy rate is 58%, which is a significant factor contributing to its overall education ranking. For context, the World Population Review's education rankings evaluate countries based on a comprehensive set of indicators, although the specific details for "WT20 2024" are not fully elaborated in the provided snippet beyond the rank and literacy rate.
Comparative Education Ranks (WT20 2024)
To provide a clearer picture of Pakistan's position, here's how it compares to some other countries based on the same dataset:
| Country | Literacy Rate | Education Rank (WT20 2024) |
|---|---|---|
| Pakistan | 58% | 136 |
| Ivory Coast | 90% | 135 |
| Bulgaria | 98% | 134 |
| Rwanda | 76% | 133 |
As shown in the table, a higher rank number indicates a lower position in the global education standing. Countries like Bulgaria, with a significantly higher literacy rate, achieve a better rank (134), while Ivory Coast, despite having a much higher literacy rate than Pakistan, is just one rank above at 135. This suggests the ranking considers additional factors beyond just the adult literacy rate.
