I believe that you and your friends do have good parents who know child psychology and would not put too much pressure on their kids. As you have mentioned, you have the opportunity to explore sports and music but you are not asked to make high achievements on this because you feel you are not talented. While nowadays, if you want to get into an elite local school (given you don’t have connections with the school administration), you have to acquire certain levels of achievements academically and on extra-curricular activities at the age of 5. This is against child development and I would not like my kid to go through that. But if you have links to enter an elite school, then it's not a problem at all. For the point in time management, I am not sure if it comes from the local school training in Hong Kong? The top scorers in my university days were mostly students returning from Singapore. Our curriculum was very demanding so one needs a very effective method of revision in order to score high marks. And I noticed that IS students seem to handle this much easier. For those who graduated from local schools, it’s impossible for them to simply memorize the textbooks so they had a hard time at the beginning of their university years. And at last, I believe that the homework pressure is devastating to one’s passion in learning. Most of the local school graduates won’t take up further studies after they finish their bachelors degree, while the IS students are more keen on continuing their studies, or read at their free time. Even though these “elite” students are “successful” at their job or family roles, would it be still better for them to keep an interest in learning? |
