    Omg are you freaking kidding me? What kind of analysis is this? You can be born into the poorest family on Ghana and be a nerd and be born into the richest family and be academically challenged. Every person has one great thi ...

    Failure is always a good motivation for someone to rise. Psychologically, one would want to prove to others that hey i hv something great in me. But this seems to work well for ppl from already achieved families.

    Prempeh is a Bankye Ekurasi school that's why he failed

  • cute shay 11 years ago

    can everyone go to these schools. the blessing of God makes riches and not Harvard university.

  • cute shay 11 years ago

    Thank you Appiah. Even some of the richest people in Ghana didn't even go to school, and they hire graduates in their companies. I bet some of those graduates are from the great schools. At the end of the day, you are your ow ...

    You do love Ghana so much. There are only 5 great schools in your country and the others are pretenders right? Don't repeat this to anyone else, let it end here. Ghanaians are our own enemies that's why we don't improve. My e ...

    So which certificate did you sent to USA to study

  • Petamu 11 years ago

    That is a good question. For me, it's all because he was from a wealthy family that was why he could push on again. If it had happened to a 'mobrowa' like myself, that would have been the end.

  • cute shay 11 years ago

    Wealthy family? I don't think in American terms, he would be consisted wealthy and therefore given preferential treatment. Obviously there are exceptions to every rule, but for the most part, equality is effective in America, ...

    You know one can take the GED here in America and get into college? If you don't do well on it, you can still be admitted, but you'll be put on learning support courses for a semester or so.
