Why are our universities world renowned but our high school system is not?

Right @sorghum. I agree that the UK has strong universities. I responded in part to your assertion that the US couldn’t fully match the UK on a per capita basis. It seems to me to the US fully matches or slightly more

Well, I only referred to Oxford and Cambridge in that regard. I don’t believe at all that the US has 10 universities as strong as Oxford and Cambridge, to match the population ratio.

I am not British, or American.
