[quote=Anonymous]Right, but it's pretty obvious from all the academic research that performance in school tracks very closely to socioeconomic status, and kids from lower socioeconomic classes have to work harder to catch up. In the US, we recognize it. In other countries, it is purely exams and academic performance. Which is more of a meritocracy? I don't know. But coming from a privileged background myself, married to someone who grew up in a working class family, I realize just how easy it is to take these cumulative advantages for granted.[/quote]
