What I learned
I learned that a great education in the United States is not cheap, in fact, many people cannot afford to pay around 40 grand a year for their children's education. However, the success rate of these universities is so high that I think that the 20 thousand students that enter these universities a year will end up in the high levels of the economic ladder.
Also, the fact that it is so expensive makes your choice of career vital, since you dont have that much margin of error. However, in the present day many universities are having programs for people to choose their preffered career instead of regretting their decisions.
