Elementary vs. University Education - American Lit 261

A question posed by Ann Marie Millican for American Lit 261:

Elementary schools had to follow the rules and the laws. Throughout the years, going to a university you could push the laws and bend them. For example: Marjane was good at art. To get into another school, she had to draw a picture of what they wanted.

Why couldn't she use her own imagination and own artistic abilites, and wow them with a different piece, showing them that having a different talent is okay? How do you feel that she couldn't use her own ideas?
