Fallacy - Marketing Fallacy

Many parents, when they send their kids to any preparatory courses, often like to ask - What is the percentage pass?
Well, how do you justify the number given to you? Also, does it mean that if there is a high percentage pass, your child is one of them, or vice versa? Of course, the number may seem to give a peace of mind. But I would take this as a fallacy - a marketing fallacy.

At Guru Kids Pro, we do not like to give any numbers to mislead parents as a high percentage of passes does not mean any child who comes by stands a high chance, and vice versa. We look at each child individually!

Every child is different. Every child's strengths and weaknesses differ. Do be alert to what a centre can provide for your child's needs by talking to the teacher(s).

Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself. ~ John Dewey
