What do you all think? Is this deliberate? Are students of state schools being prevented from achieveing as many qualifications and as high grades as they could?

The way they teach it there is differant from the US, according to my dad. Here, they make you take a bunch of courses in every subject. In Hong Kong, you don't have to take every subject. You can either be a artistic or logical person. An artistic person takes history, language, art, music, etc. A logical person takes math, science, stuff like that. Because they're so concentrated in one area, they learn alot more and make more use of their knowledge.

As for private schools, it makes sense since if only the rich get the learning, it reinforces a class system where education is a currency instead of a universal right. The NWO and their flunkies get it, while we don't.
Originally posted by Zzub I consider my time in school a pure waste of time. I learned nearly nothing up to the age of 16. I taught myself everything I wanted to know, then got the degrees I wanted, once I was free of the school system.
