Last month I read a news article in the newspapers that science and maths cutoffs are lower than Arts and Commerce. This is an almost complete reversal of student preferences in less than a decade !
Contrast this with the Blue Book published in US, which points to the fact that the future competitiveness of US will depend on fundamental scientific breakthroughs in basic sciences and mathematics.
This raises many questions on the direction our entire society is taking and the foundations we are now laying for the next generation. I will share more thoughts on this topic in my next posts...
