Informative and detailed post.. Now answering the question, I think the biggest flaw in today's education system is that we judge students on the basis of the institution they have done their studies from, like if a student have done his studies from a renowned and famous University(no offense), he/she will be given more importance than the ones who have completed their studies from not very known Universities. Not every student can afford to study in famous Universities, so students should not be judged by the name of their institutions. If this concept is removed from today's education system then the students will focus more on their studies rather than being worry of the thought if my University is not famous enough my future is dark too.... Its just my point of view, no offense to anyone.... :))

Yes I agree... Too much emphasis on the "branding" of schools. Not only is it not financially fair, it's also not fair to those who don't fit the typical metrics that schools use to assess the "intellect" of students. Hiring people based solely on grades/schooling is also something that doesn't make sense to me. Raw talent and the qualities of a person should be assessed... "Is a person hard-working and determined?" Vs. "How well did a person memorize this list of useless facts and then regurgitate them onto a piece of paper?"
Yep, and these practices are damaging the education system from inside just like termites do to a piece of wood....
