Japan is considered to have the best educational system. It focuses more on concepts as opposed to operation and application. In America, they drill things into you one after another, making memorization the most convenient form of learning. In America, we learn to divide. In Japan, they learn what division is. trust me there's a huge difference. I know because i've taught myself.
