The Technical University of Munich* \u2013 Preparation for those Super-Duper Elite German Universities: It All Starts in Kindergarten \u2013 8<\/p>\n
Last December, the Central Association of German Crafts and Trades (Zentralverband des Deutschen Handwerks) pointed out with some urgency that \u201clater remedial measures\u201d in connection with the growing number of apparently ineducable young people were having little success. For those individuals who don\u2019t fit into the scheme of things right from the beginning, making up for what they have lost is very difficult. Seventeen percent of pupils in Germany leave school every year without some kind of diploma or certificate. That is an economic catastrophe.<\/strong><\/p>\n (To be continued)<\/p>\n Source: Ruehle, Alex, \u201eDie Zukunft entscheidet sich im Kindergarten\u201c, sueddeutsche.de, 14 July 2010.<\/p>\n *In the area of engineering\/technology and computer sciences, according to the Academic Ranking of World Universities compiled by Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the Technical University of Munich, officially recognized by the German government as an \u201celite university,\u201d is ranked with twenty-two other universities at 78 or below, well beneath such institutions as the Technical University of Denmark.
