::A review of the cite provided (and it is a good cite) shows virtually all scores from all states are minutely below national averages, minutely. See for yourself. There are two scales with national averages of something lke 238 and 257 (speaking from memory), and '''''all''''' states consistently come in 2 or 3, seldom more than 5 or 6 pts lower, IOW 98 to 99% of the national average. One instance, from memory, I think MS had one embarssingly low score. It's little more than a curiousity, and doesn't deserve much attention.
