W: Good. Now, why does the educational system in America attract so many foreigners?
M: Well, the U. S. system emphasizes individual choices. Many American high school students decide to take difficult classes in subjects they're interested in. And if they want to continue their education, it's easy to complete all the required courses and get enough credits to earn a bachelor's degree.

M: Ever since I was a kid, I've read a lot of American storybooks. My mother worked in a library in Stockholm. She was always borrowing English books and magazines for my brother and me.
W: Well, that explains your excellent English. OK, let's go on. How long does it take for a college student to get a BA or a BS?
