Before the ink dries out on this law, there will be a queue of Chinese students to every ghetto school in the town.
- nemo44x 6y agoMy biggest issue with that is I don’t think it helps. Putting people in places they can’t compete doesn’t work. I’d even claim it a national security threat in that its vital our smartest kids get the best advanced training as it should benefit us all. Letting average or above average kids into places meant for the best of the best doesn’t help.
