Chinese Education

As I mentioned in the previous blog, students in China are studying in a strict and boring environment. Most of them are stressful because of huge amount of "competitors". If you want to go to a high-ranked collage in China, you have to beat millions and millions of other students from nationwide, in a annual Collage Entrance Examination in order to get in a desired collage.

For some reasons people can't completely blame the education system in China and promote foreign education system such as in the United States, to copy exactly the same educational structure because the circumstances are varied among countries. In China, there are over billion people of population and there are about 200 millions of students in the country, that is the number close to the whole population in the United States. So it would be against the reality if the American education system is transferred into China.

 Chinese students have to fight others in that annual Collage Entrance Examination, which we called "single-log bridge", not all of them, sometimes even just few of them could get a desired score and get into the collage they want to.

It is unfair because under this education system, students are taught to be test machines, most of them have lost their right to enjoy studying, lost their ability of being creative. But what else can I say, life is unfair. The only thing we can do now is to face the truth, but we won't forget how terrible these educations are, so that some day when some of us are in the position which he/she will be able to change the situation, and let our offsprings to have a better education.
