Some countries have better educational standards & quality than others...

Recently, I met with friends from different polytechnics and universities. Some studied the same discipline while some only have a borrowed idea from their electives. I am from a background on which we rate universities and the performance of graduates of such citadels of learning in the workplace, etc. Some people naturally lack the ability to express themselves either verbally, or written or both. But recently, I discovered that many parents prefer to either send their wards to particular universities or to specific countries to study whatsoever. Some are of the opinion that standards are different. Some believe the quality linked to availability of practical equipments is higher in some countries like US, Britain, Australia, Russia, Germany, etc. But a closer look at this opinion proves that the student is the sole determinant and not necessarily the school system and curricula. To some, course contents are the same across the globe. but I know some schools may not have some specialist lecturers for some courses. Do you think the quality and standard could be better in some countries or which countries do you think are better than others academically? Meanwhile, if you were to send your child to a university, which countries would you prefer and which would you discard, and WHY?
