about USA transfer system

Few days age, I chatted with my old friends who study abroad by MSN Messenger. They talked me they will transfer to a new college next session. David will transfer to a city college and Hou will transfer to Purdue University. Beacase USA has a perfect transfer system. Many students will study hard in order to transfer to the ideal college. In Taiwan, althouge we also has transfer system, but it's not perfect. Almost college students in Taiwan don't study hard like abroad students. They always spend much time playing video games.I think Taiwan students have to change these bad habits. Otherwise we will don't have enough abilities to face the contention in the future.
