Whether the phenomenon could be a competitive impetus or ineffective consumption is a pending question. As a Chinese undergraduate student who is presently undergoing the inner competition, in this essay, the author is trying to analyze with personal experience the causes and drawbacks of educational involution, by reviewing published literature and comprehensively researching related information. Essentially, the existence and aggravation educational involution derive from the lag between rapidly-developing society and lagged-behind education. In accordance with both the inner and external factors, the author proposes some suggestions of solution to tackle the issue, and looks forward to the easing of the internal friction and a more sustainable educational system.
