Adjustment on Focus of Paper

As the title states, I've decided to alter the focus of my research paper. Originally, my paper was to highlight the differences of schools based on culture. But now, I've decided to shift the purpose. Now, I plan to have a paper (name to be decided) on the question "Do more difficult schooling systems result in more successful people?" For example, South Korea has a notoriously difficult education system. Does that mean South Korea produce more successful people per capita in comparison to other countries? America, on the flip side, is known for its mediocre school system. But, does that mean America is less likely to be home to intelligent people? I disagree.

My hypothesis: Countries with more difficult educational systems are not more likely to have more successful people per capita. I believe success depends heavily on personal willpower and how you grew up.

I intend to begin researching my paper tomorrow. My timeline looks a bit like this:

December 17th-December 20th: Gather data, research
December 20th-December 25th: Finish researching and finish the introduction and abstract
December 25th-January 5th: Finish writing the paper
January 5th-January 9th: Finish Details, Proofread

If I need to, I might tweak the timeline a bit. Also, I plan to update this blog at least 3 times a week. If I didn't make it clear in previous posts, this blog is for the "Blog" award - one of the various awards given by MIT Inspire to the student with the best blog.

Thanks for reading! I'll be sure to update soon.
