As far as is known to me [I could not track them all, but heard about several], the graduates of the class I was observing could now be found as full professors at major universities around Europe, and a couple are in the United States, teaching in Ivy League. This is the level their education was aiming at. These visualization exercises and other more or less neat tricks were not wasted, after all.

Do you care if "retards" and "dullards" are home schooled?

In a free market there will be as many styles of schooling as there are human dreams.

In a free market, the system of age segregating brilliant children, keeping them from interacting with those working in the field, confining their math exposure to merely one professor,,,well...it will either win or fail.

As for our family, we are not impressed with the Ivy League. The only people impressed with an Ivy League education are other Ivy League grads. It's a mutual admiration society.
