[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course. American schools are very behind. We tutor in math mostly. [/quote] So at age 17 what level of math have kids in other countries reached? Is differential equations really so far behind the rest of the world?[/quote] Don't know about other part of the world, but definitely far behind Asia. Middle school graduates in China (about age 15) can tackle SAT math problems without much trouble and get high scores. High school graduates consider themselves a big failure if not getting full score in GRE testings on math part. A Chinese friend of mine who left China and attend high school in US said he didn't need to make any efforts to get As in math class, and most scary/unbelievable part, he said he's a C student on math in his class back in China.[/quote]
