Various measurement and evaluation studies at the national and international levels are conducted by countries to reveal the extent of success in different education levels. One such study is the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) survey. The PISA survey results provide educators and decisionmakers with practical and relevant information about the education levels of their countries. To this end, this study aimed to determine the composite PISA 2018 performance rankings of the participating countries. The mean scores of reading skills, mathematics, and science literacies used in determining composite PISA performance rankings were weighted through CRITIC and Entropy methods allowing for objective criterion weighting. Two different composite PISA performance rankings of countries were determined by applying the CRITIC- and Entropy-based TOPSIS method, one of the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods. The Spearman correlation coefficient was calculated to compare the rankings determined through this method. A perfect positive correlation was found between the two different composite PISA performance rankings. According to the results of the study, when the PISA performance rankings of the 78 countries that were participated in the PISA 2018 survey were examined, it was determined that the composite PISA performance rankings of the first 5 and the last 5 countries, and the rankings of 43 countries calculated by both methods remained the same that calculated with the Entropy and CRITIC-based TOPSIS method
