TIMSS: Fourth grade students who did not reach the low international benchmark of mathematics achievement (%) is the share of 4th grade students scoring below 400 on the mathematics assessment. The indicator is the percentage of students with achievement too low for estimation on TIMSS and TIMSS Numeracy combined. Students were considered to have achievement too low for estimation if their performance on the assessment was no better than could be achieved by simply guessing on the multiple-choice assessment items. Data reflect country performance in the stated year according to TIMSS reports, but may not be comparable across years or countries.
