In the past, only students who needed to re-take the college entrance exam or who had poor academic performance at school would end up in buxibnas. Nowadays, however, buxibans along the Nanyang Street usually put out ads promoting their “English Gifted Class,” “Math Gifted Class,” “Admission-to-Best-College Class,” and the like, in hope of appealing to high school freshmen who feel like shoring up on their schoolwork. In the classroom of buxibans, students from prestigious high schools such as the Chien-Kuo High School and Taipei First Girls' High School sometimes take up the majority, if not all, of the student body.

The phenomenon mentioned above is no longer news today. It is therefore not difficult to imagine that those from prestigious high schools used to be “regulars” of buxibans back in their junior high, and have chosen to keep cramming after entering high school. As a matter of fact, with students from top high school attending buxibans en masse, “cram” culture has more or less influenced every student, so we cannot overlook the latent impact this “buxiban industry” may have on the education system.
