A friend of mine used to tell me that I should go for 中专, not 高中, because he thought I was too lazy to be able to get into college. BTW, this friend went to 中专. He was actually, right. I was able to get into college because I woke up just a couple of months before the exam. If any later, I would've failed for sure.
【在 a******e 的大作中提到】 : 现在烂人很多,搁早几年,其实都是连高中考中专都没戏的。

从这儿来说,我很佩服沈AP的地方就是,她本来可以中专毕业就顺利工作舒舒服服生活 ,人却硬走了这么一条路改做科研,这样的人少之又少,只能说人是有志向和兴趣,而 不是纯粹靠读书搞科研make a living的。
The college acceptance rate for some remote places was very low. That's why many people choose 中专. Because that guarantees a decent job. If you went to 高中, you had to fight another round and have very high probability of losing. When I went to 高中, it's definitely more difficult to go to 中专. Higher scores needed.
There's no indication that her English is bad. These stupid kids said her English is bad because she wrote "an lawyer" on BBS. These kids made too big a deal out of it. Actually, I think she might be thinking "an attorney", then decided to go with lawyer.
