Yes, ours is in general way better and more demanding than most of the western (meaning in general and till secondary level and not super expensive universities), even not that intelecually gifted people were quite average once they moved abroad as I remember, this is 3rd till 5th grade elementary school if I am not mistaken..

What I am trying to say is that even EVERYONE come through the 5 th grade elementary school there is actually VERY FEW that would know how to use brackets once they are out of the school for a while..

It's absolutely natural and everyone have right to forget stuff he doesn't use, but also SHOULD NOT show off something he forgot..
