Re: Thursday Open Thread (4.00 / 4)

The French call it one of the "Grande Ecoles" to which students apply after two years of preparatory school after secondary school.Normal Sup (there are three, Paris Cachan and Lyon) prepares its students for high level teaching and research. The one in Paris is the highest rated and is very very difficult to be admitted to. Cachan and Lyon are a bit less difficult to enter.This is all done by competitive exams.

Hey, Grandma Moses started late!
