That's why many Chinese universities are rated lowly on the world stage. What's more, Chinese students attending joke universities in China tend to have entitlement mentalities - they expect to graduate regardless of poor academic performance. However, some go abroad to study, but if they can't pass their exams they'll be sent down. That is as it should be.

I wonder if that's entirely true- I know that many sub-standard Chinese students are welcomed with open arms by ropey universities in Pennsylvania. USA. I am sure they graduate with flying colours at these dubious money-grabbing establishments. I was seconded to a private middle school in China; hand in glove with American institutions. They are often no more than prep schools for the Pennsylvania special arrangement.
