Описание: education #middleschool #exam #kotacoaching #gaokao
What happens when you turn education into a 24/7 industrial process? In some parts of the world, 5:30 AM isn't just an early start—it’s the beginning of a 17-hour "military" grind. Welcome to the world of the Brain Factories. In this deep dive, we travel across 7 countries to investigate the most rigorous middle schools and coaching hubs on Earth. From the "Gaokao Factories" of China to the elite "Classes Préparatoires" of France, we break down the minute-by-minute schedules, the "killer" exam questions, and the psychological price students pay for a seat at the top. Are these systems building the leaders of the future, or are they breaking the spirit of a generation? Watch until the end for our critical breakdown of the "Standardization Trap."If you enjoyed this investigative documentary, please Subscribe and hit the Bell Icon to join our global community of thinkers.
