--Increased academic diversity

Changed:
<
<
While we track students into different classrooms within the same school, Japanese students are tracked into completely different schools based on entrance examination performance. Except for extremely elite schools, however, the range of admissible scores for a school is not especially narrow. The goal is to eliminate extreme disparity and get students the education they need rather than maximize rather than total academic efficiency. Thus, in contrast with American classrooms, students in a Japanese classroom may range from the academically inclined to those with no plans of graduating high school. The result is already more exposure to people of different academic ability than what occurs in American schools.
