Our system is quite simple. You get promoted regularly from grade to grade, and there is a virtually unlimited number of colleges for anyone who wishes to attend one.

Of course it is not simple - no educational system is, not anywhere. Our own system seems simpler to us because we grew up within it and understand the concepts from the inside. This is neither criticism nor endorsement - I would never defend one country over another except when it comes to things like human rights issues. To each what works for them.
