About This Quote

In today’s world it is very difficult to get an excellent education for a modest price. For example, a Harvard education can cost around $60,000 a year. That’s a lot of money, but not exactly a bargain. In other words, expensive schools have a high number of crooks who take advantage of the students and their parents to make a lot of money. The result is that students have to pay more for their tuition and have less time to learn the material they need for their exams.
