I can almost guarantee that the South Koreans who go to college don’t learn a bunch of PC drivel crap in their classes and they work a hell of a lot harder than American students and probably party a hell of a lot less.
I can almost ALSO guarantee that they value their education a hell of a lot more too.
ALL of my ROK Army peers had already graduated college before being drafted. The fact that they worked besides me at I Corps headquarters means that their fathers were tycoons, generals, government officials, admirals or the like.
For several years at the unemployment office I taught job-seeking skills classes for welfare recipients. The ones we’d send to college I’d steer towards nursing home administration. An associates degree that pays real well pretty quickly.
Except for Ashkenazi Jews.
Now, I am not even sure that hold true.
Excuse me, don't excuse me, but this was always BS in the first place.
[ The experience in the US will be worse, since Asians are smarter than Whites and Blacks. ]
expect anti-Asian racism from the oh so tolerant liberals because the culture Asians come from seem to value hard work more than the liberal everyone gets a trophy culture.

... and me, and maybe you?
One smart man he felt smart ...
Asians are genetically smarter than Whites. Whites are genetically smarter than Blacks.
If I have to spell it out: If you don't know anything, how do you know how to ask the right questions?
Really, it's BS in its purist form ... an empty rhetorical formula.
sorry for the typo
To be honest, I don't really remember anything like that. I just took the tests.
OK, plain and simple, fine...
I recall that the US Army had classes to teach English!
Yes, in business/finance classes the herd thinned quickly when classes like statistics entered the picture; those looking for easy degrees switched majors. Simple supply & demand in terms of the value of a degree; if everyone could get one with little effort it won’t pay much...
Vietnam changed the landscape of colleges because they attracted many people concerned with avoiding military service instead of being interested in an education; I don’t think the frat boys of today understand that when they try to replicate “Animal House”. The dean makes it clear that once he expels them that he’ll alert their draft boards.
Today many colleges that expanded during the Vietnam War to accommodate the large number of students are facing enrollment problems so they offer High School Part II and/or market themselves to foreigners to fill the seats...
Maybe we should just add two more years of high school, and let colleges teach degrees only. That way everyone would have the equivalence of an Associates degree. College could reduced to 2 years, depending on the degree, and HS kids would be better equipped to decide on a career path.
