How competitive are you? Are you aware of the new competition paradigm?
Is competition important to you? I know when I was at school we had public lists of exam results. In my view it was a good thing and helped introduce students to the realities of adult life. After all, that is one of the purposes of an education. Well, it seems it used to be. [...]
