The purpose of this article is to review the empirical studies of academic achievement disparity in Japan and USA, and to lead suggestions for Japan. By reviewing those studies, it is found out that although the existence of academic achievement disparity is pointed out in Japan, the process of disparity and the way to overcome it still remain unrevealed. On the other hand, there are many studies in USA because of its historical and social background, and they also include many suggestions for Japan. But it is unsure whether we can apply the knowledge in USA to Japan.
