Improve talent evaluation, check brain drain

Some recent media reports said a Chinese youth, whose family spent about 4 million yuan ($581,000) on his education in the United States over eight years, returned home only to realize he might not be able to earn that amount back because it was not easy for him to find a well-paying job.

So, is studying abroad still a worthwhile option for Chinese youths?

The answer differs from person to person, because to study abroad is a personal choice, and entails rational planning.
