I was a "peut mieux faire" for years. Then I had to work very hard for a year to study pipo-shit with all of those unbearable arrogant guys with such a high opinion of themselves.
But even if you are working there, you are not producing anything, or even preparing to do so. French university sucks, but american students are a pain in the ass, they are so closed minded (not as much as sciencespists hardliners).

Working, like in real life, not for a teacher that never really worked, is the only way of to learn. Studying is holidays compared to real work.

I have had my scars from the French educational system.

Can we have this article in French, and copoies posted to Le Figaro an other prominent publications....? It's high time the topic was brought to the forefront of the French people's minds.

I could not agree more with Franck. Being original and creative is impossible without rigueur : it only leads to obvious conclusions. The very purpose of the dissertation is the implementation of a method that forces one to genuinely THINK. Believing in spontaneous creativity is quite pretentious...
