Hold on, in advanced education here in my area of the states, almost half the population of students in classes I see are of Chinese or Indian backgrounds and most are here on foreign visas.
If the education is so shit, why are there so many foreign students studying here and paying insane amounts of money to do so.
'Chinese or Indian backgrounds' so not Chinese.
China leads in 95% of STEM and they're only getting better and widening the gap.
The US has a handful of good Ivy league institutions (invariably using foreign professors and braindrain), the general level is mediocre at best.
Yup and paying insane amounts of money to get in, too.
wow what an argument.
I bet you never went there, it shows
Apologies if English isn't your first language it's called reading between the lines.
Ill draw it out for you: If people would pay that much (yes insane) money to go to "shit" and mediocre institutions here in the states, what does it say about the options they have locally?
