[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I still don’t get it—if their universities are better than ours, why are their students so desperate to get into U.S. colleges, even to the point of cheating? That just doesn’t add up.

And ironically 2024-2025 we see surge in international students in US colleges even with Trump administration.[/quote]

The high scoring kids in China get into the highest ranked colleges.
The kids who don't perform well are shipped abroad.

So there you have it. The children of the Politburo who study at Harvard probably couldn't score high enough for the elite colleges there. But I guess it's no different than the Obama kids and Jared Kushner being given a spot at Harvard too. They have hooks.
The hosting of all the mediocre Chinese students in US colleges is mostly about finances. Foreign students are full pay and a big cash cow. So many schools in the US have lowered themselves down to being a degree mill.[/quote]

Ok but what do they do after they graduate? Are they Chinese version of Jared Kushner?[/quote]

Probably. China has been suffering from a glut of bachelor's degrees and their youth are having trouble landing work. They're suffering from the same "everyone should go to college" problem as the US.
Makes me think about the period right before the Bolshevik revolution. Too many educated people without an outlet and the restlessness from that.[/quote]
