Slightly agree

No, but free for low-income students with excellent grades

The Chilean Socialist Party would likely see this option as a partial solution, but not their ideal outcome. They believe in free education for all, not just for low-income students with excellent grades. While they might support this as a temporary measure, it does not align with their ultimate goal of free education for everyone.
