I remember seeing some article about French brain drain being extremely systematic now, especially among the better schools. Get free schooling in France, then

  And we in the US aspire to live in France...

    Advice from a french expat in the US: do not. The image of France you have in mind does not exist. Go in vacation in Paris or in the south. It is a beautiful country. But do not move there.

  Schooling in France is definitely not free. Public schools (the ones that are free) represent very little amount of the Masters Degree. Most are private schools and cost ~7-10k euros per year.

    > Public schools (the ones that are free) represent very little amount of the Masters Degree I think you're talking about business schools. Almost all reputable engineering schools are virtually free, as well as all universities.

      To add to this: "Virtually free" can mean somewhere around 2000 Euros a year. A lot of people get aid (I didn't have to pay for my last year thanks to this). Plus most engineering schools don't really use textbooks, so you don't have much in extra expenses apart from a laptop. Yes, taxes pay for this, but that was my out-of-pocket for schooling.

    Nope. Most are free. You do have to pay for some business schools, but what people say on that: you pay for your diploma. I have friends who went to some private schools for computer science and it seems like it's a good path for some of them (around 8k euro/year)
