Harvard Sucks, Letter to Chinese American High School Students

[@chilling00000]

Both US and China's education have problems, due to their selection processes. China's exam-oriented education may seem fair, but it's not actually "education", it only cares about exam scores and students are taught to become exam-taking machines; students who have potentials/talents but fail to perform well in exams will never have a chance. While in the US, the "holistic review" is mysterious and highly subjective, "foul play" can certainly occur without consequence, but overall I think the system has served US well. Not getting into HYPSM is not the end because there are tons of other options.

Most Chinese universities, if not all, including the ones you listed, essentially extend high school education for another four years. The heavy workload focuses solely on scoring high in every course, leaving no room for genuine intellectual growth. Professors are just readers of outdated PowerPoint slides because their entire focus is tied to research, awards, and publishing papers-factors that determine their career prospects, or even whether they can sustain one in academia. No one is genuinely interested in nurturing undergraduates, who, at that stage, can only take without giving back. Networking might be one of the few upsides, and that’s likely a significant strength for the universities you mentioned.

@CatandHamsterTales-sm8uw My son is third year at Tsinghua. I have two Ivy League degrees - undergrad and grad. You are a moron. I mean, c’mon lady… 70% of the Ivy League wind up in finance. Real genuine intellectual growth there… I’ve never met more sheeple in my life. US elite ungrad can’t even be bothered to interest its students to pursue PhDs (grad school means MBA or law school). They just want to shuffle them off to Wall Street while they scour the world for PhD applicants. That’s the thing with Americanoids… y’all’s tiresome, uninteresting, cliched, boring, dumber than stump and don’t even know it.

China recently changed the nationality law and now children with 1 Chinese parent (if they are still under a provisional green card) are considered Chinese citizens. Do you think this will affect those children's chances of applying as an international student?

[@MozichatswithHanFeizi]

Not clear what you mean. The child is a Chinese national if child is American born and one parent does not have a green card and is not a US citizen. That should be exceedingly rare for a parent to not get at least a green card by the time the child is a high school senior.

[@torao773]

@@MozichatswithHanFeizi Can’t post links here but you can find the law change in Chinese. Green cards tied to marriage (like my wife’s) cannot be used to rule out Chinese nationality. This is a 2023 rule change. My wife got her green card shortly before my son’s birth. He was denied a visa to visit China and got a Travel Document instead.

[@MozichatswithHanFeizi]

🤔… interesting. We actually went through this because my son was born in the US and left before his mother had a green card. He ended up applying as a local student through a HK scheme.

us colleges really aren't experiencing a 'culture war' like you claim. the majority of students aren't freaking out about gay students being on campus

I'm not saying you shouldn't express your views on Ivy League schools in the US, but it would be more believable if you were able to express similar views about for instance, Peking University.

[@MozichatswithHanFeizi]

Partially does, no?

[@jacksonsucker4216]

What I see, is propaganda expressed in manipulative way. There are other options to obtaining a really good degree from a recognized institution. It doesn’t have to be from an Ivy League or an Elite European University. I personally wouldn’t allow myself to be vulnerable to giving up myself to an oppressive regime that treats outsiders with suspicion and their citizens like dirt.

[@robertlee5151]

Why not just use the term C9?

[@MozichatswithHanFeizi]

C’mon man… is UPenn, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth and Brown in HYPSM?

[@robertlee5151]

So that corresponds to Harbin Tech and Xi'aa? Did you go to HYPSM?

[@MozichatswithHanFeizi]

@@robertlee5151 So this ranking was done using the proprietary Han Feizi methodology… which was to name a few Chinese universities after four beers. And no. I did not go to HYPSM… but I could have, if they didn’t reject me.

Trynna help dumb wypipos out man! If a sizeable number of Chinese Americans choose to do this, it will lower Ivy League admissions standards and maybe you or your dumdum kids will have a shot.
