    Reuter's wrong in this case. To get into the top Chinese colleges in China, the kids have to go through insane crap in their grade schools since elementary. The ones that can trully do well enough on the tests to get above that point are probably robots by the time they get to college. They are so use to having people tell them what to do that some of them really can't think for themselves. So when they are no longer being held to as strenous standards because they are college students now that some of them lax up way to much. It's a different culture, the top Chinese students in China work better when given a system of commands to follow. The only cousin that I know of that has a shot of going to a decent college right now is doing 6 hours of homework every day. And also studying for college exams on top of that. The crazy thing is it's not out of the norm for those that want to "succeed" in life.
