The Sochi Olympics are completed and the results are in. Total medal count:
- Russia - 33
- U.S. - 28
- Norway - 26
- Canada - 25
In this blog post from Karl Fisch he makes a comparison between Olympic expectations and educational expectations. When medals/10 million population is ranked the U.S. is 22nd at 0.5 and Norway is 1 st at 27.9. So who is really the better country? What if Olympic results were held to the same standards as educational results?
