    In my country university is free, some have a test you have to pass because there are so many people that want to go, but those are law and medicine. And most people drop out in the first year.

    Otherwise it’s not really an issue.

      Dropping out seems like an issue, as you’re paying for someone who isn’t going to benefit very much from it. Most people overall, or most people in those majors?

        I think most people in those mayors drop out, not overall. My guess is that people know you can make a lot of money there but then realize they don’t actually like it.
