I think the education curriculum in the US advocates more creative thinking than other systems like the UK's, which is more academically driven, more textbook-based. Which do you think is the better system?

I’m not aware 100% of the system in place in American Schools but judge from people who I know there seems little difference between the to systems. Schooling in general is getting easier due to accommodate an increasing rate of non-interested children. There should be more ‘real life experiences’ in school.

I think education in US is okay. In math wise, I think they are easy. I didnt have any problem in high school. When I went home, I compare the math level with the Japanese one and Japanese math was way more advanced than American one. But every country got their own belief in their eduacation system so as long as students learn something, I think it okay. For me, textbook based works better.
