[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The UK system excels at helping students learn a specific topic quite thoroughly. The system also is designed around how to take a specific test (A levels). I[b]t also means students need to declare their intended career path by approx. age 15. [/b] [/quote] Nonsense.[/quote] It is not nonsense. My stepchild just finished A levels in the UK and had to select courses for the exams at age 15. By selecting English literature courses, it meant that pursuing a science-related career path would not be an option. That would never be the case in the U.S. where there is much more time to decide.
