And the results are somewhat good with formerly Japan and now South Korea being one of the leaders in innovation. Albeit much less competitive China, USA, France and Germany are still close enough. The problem with Japanese and Korean style of achievement is that it can get you to rest on your laurels and additionally it is anti-creative, strongly promoting patterns, knowledge and effort over novel approaches. All in all, few types, perhaps even none, of standardized tests allow novel solutions.

If you consider suicide being the leading cause of death between 11 and 30 among S. Koreans, the results are good.

> Albeit much less competitive China I'm not sure about this. From what I've read, Chinese society is more competitive, not less.
