Sumario:[EN] The publication of the last TIMSS' report (2017) embosses the necessity to keep performing studies that value comparatively the patterns followed by different countries, to introduce improvements that mean developments on the learning systems. Educational politics need data to fundament their positions on changes that will facilitate the professional and social development of the population. The objective of the article is to perform a comparative study of the educative efficiency of countries from two very cultural separated continents but with formative qualifications, in occasions, very nearby. Primarily, there will be obtained the levels of efficiency in mathematics and science between only European countries, and in continuation, the sample will be enlarged with Asian countries to check which one of these highlights against the Europeans. The empirical analysis will be performed through the technic DEA from TIMSS corresponding to 2015. The results show pretty high efficiency levels on the simple of European countries, therefore, with Little effort they could reach the maximum level. England, Russia and Norway highlight as countries completely efficient on both subjects and analyzed degrees. When introducing on the analysis the Asian countries, the variability of the simple increases and only Norway and England are capable of competing and keeping themselves on the maximum levels of efficiency besides the Asians placed on the first positions of TIMSS, such as Singapore or Korea. Therefore, in some countries coincidences between the TIMSS valuations and the efficiency level obtained are accomplished, such as Russia, Korea, England, Japan, Singapore or Hong Kong. Nevertheless, other not so well valued countries obtain high efficiency levels, proving the necessity to increase the use of inputs to improve the academic performance, like in the case of Kuwait
