It seems common sense. My wife is Chinese, and she said that she had hobbies and was an avid reader before high school. After that, there was no place for curiosity and creativity. IMHO it's no mistake that China is known to have a dearth of creativity and innovation. At some point competitive education does more harm than good. Assessment tests are next to useless.
