		<description>Makes a whole lot of sense IMHO Tiara.

Passing exams with high marks does not a person make.

Many a person has no exam results yet they may just be the ones who can make a difference and offer the best of insights and most useful ways of thinking when it comes to ways to move forward!</description>

		<description>Hi Steph! 

I&#039;m not sure what the dropout rates for Malaysia or Australia are - I know in Malaysia there tends to be such a strong stigma against dropping out that the only people who ever do are either too poor and need to start working, or have started families. 

I would like to see your article when you&#039;re done :) 

B*B, Tiara </description>

		<description>Hello.  This is such an inspiring post... really.  I found it while googling &quot;why is dropping out bad&quot;, for an article I&#039;d like to write for Associated Content.  I was reading the newspaper, an article called &#039;Who has public education solution?&quot; and it seemed to focus on dropout rates.  Instead of solely focusing on dropout rates, shouldn&#039;t we understand why they&#039;re growing, instead of just focusing on raising the graduation rate?  I would like to encourage people to delve in deeper and seek the reasons for this.  I would like more exposure on other options besides traditional schooling for people who learn differently and/or are disinterested in conventional education, plus more free/democratic/alternative schools.

I&#039;m in the US btw, I am not sure what the dropout rates are like in Malaysia/Australia.

Also I fear, though I am uncertain, that so much focus on &quot;dropout rates&quot; is because more graduation rates = better rep and higher ranking for school.  Which would be a shame, treating students as commodities...</description>

		<description>I agree that studying Science subjects can make you “more analytical” but you should also consider other factors like interest, ability, etc when choosing the right stream.</description>
