Yes, would agree on that statement. They have to be to get decent jobs now. My daughters put in way more time in their school days to doing homework and it showed in their GSCEs, A Levels (eldest took the sciences and passed the lot, even with her female form tutor being the most negative person to her, that I found discusting), both now have BSc's in medical degree's and jobs in their chosen professions. Lots of their friends were similar. All I did was encourge them, pay for them to do clubs and take them, plus get them involved with the local ATC Squadron (that was attached to their school) that certainly broadened their horizions.
