what's interesting for people with an non-xenophobic eye, is the contrast between the students, those whose parents or sponsor paid for everything and those who are really trying to turn their destiny around.

It really mimic the American side of thing with the prep schools, the legacy admission, the fraternities vs the first gen students or even the students born in a reservation.

Briefly attended one of these prep schools. There was as much contrast between people as anywhere else. Including contrast in affluence (being able to afford a five figure tuition doesn't automatically make one crazy rich).
