Students in Finland dedicate about 16 hours each week to foreign languages, and despite that amount of time they were second in reading, second in math, and first in science among 34 countries surveyed. In that same survey American students ranked 14th in reading, 25th in math, and 17th in science.

I've made both sentences more explicit. Is that easier for non-English speakers? The first sentence could be split into two as well if the length makes it difficult.
