[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You do have to take into account curricular inflexibility as well. For example, [b]if an American kid has already done multivariate and linear algebra in high school, the kid would have to repeat that work at Oxbridge and essentially waste the first year. Same for foreign languages not taught at Oxbridge from scratch. Already taken Russian in high school or as a DE? Start over at Oxbridge…[/b] The true UK geniuses would therefore be far better off attending college in the US, which would start them at their actual level. Of course, they wouldn’t get in, even with excellent extracurriculars, so they attend Oxbridge as a back up. Damned by both systems, unfortunately…[/quote] That’s not true at all[/quote]
