Cram school is equivalent to memorizing every previous sat question ever that just a huge expense and time sink. Eliminating them will help propel China ahead while the USA falls further behind because kids and parents have to waste considerable effort cramming

I would then think the problem is not with the "cram-schools" but with the universities who accept students based on rote-learning.

The solution then would not be to forbid the cram-schools, but the universities which apply that kinds of bad acceptance criteria. No?
