02br
00Even if we made maths compulsory, there would be no guarantee that the students' knowledge standards rise,02br
00under the circumstance which there are thousands of universities in Japan and, therefore, it is hard for the university administrations to make all their empty spots filled with students of excellence.02br

02br
01font00Any corrections or suggestions appreciated. Thank you.02font0-
