The article presents some perspectives on the possibility for Malaysia to achieve its aspiration of the top-third place of countries in the program for international student assessment (PISA) for the period 2013-2025. The document study results showed that Malaysia's PISA top-third goal was achievable. There were many factors that affected Malaysia's PISA performance such as school factors, national cultural traits and social communication. PISA’s best contribution is to provide a huge source of data that helps participating countries realize their education systems’ strengths and weaknesses, thereby establishing appropriate development strategies in the future.
