In contrasting multiple-track admissions to the joint entrance exam, he says, "The joint exam was like a general ledger: only the final figure counted, so that eventual success could wipe clean earlier failures. But the problem was that children just had one way to succeed. What's worth applauding about multiple-track admissions is that it lets children with different sets of strengths all have a chance to get ahead."
比較聯考和多元入學的優劣，他說，「聯考是算總帳，以最後結果為依據，最後成功就可以抹掉就學期間所有的失敗，但孩子只有一種出人頭地的方式；多元入學值得肯定的是，讓不同長處的孩子都有出頭的機會。」
