Anyone else think the education system needs to change? Not sure it should all been on the final exams.

@GiotarRS 3 жыл бұрын

It’s not all on the final exams tho. The majority of subjects have year long projects or orals that are worth a massive chunk. Like, what do you even propose? Almost every country has the exact same system, and I would even say that Ireland has one of the “easiest” written exams out there. I say all this as a teacher in training

The system is so messed up. I completely dedicated the past 2 years of my life to the lc and was devastated on results day. I realise now that I should have delighted with my 520 points but I was heartbroken because the course I really want is ridiculously high points. We need to be proud of our achievements and not be compared to those around us, the points system is just competing to see who can learn off the most shite for 2 weeks of exams and we’ve forgotten it all already. In desperate need of reform

Now that is perfect. I barely completed my leaving cert, and joined the Defence Forces because I knew nothing else, I was 29 when I finally found what I wanted to do and that's a firefighter. I'm now doing it and it's very rewarding, I just completed college in UCC just recently also. but the message is you won't know nothing unless you go out to the world. Big weldone to all leaving cert students, and remember it's the toughest days are the best because that's when you learn.

Great video, Rory. It reminds me of when my son showed me his results. He got 290 points too. To say I was sad was an understatement. I took to the drink something chronic and ended up losing the keys to my car. I had to hot wire my car every day to drive down for more cans. The moral of the story is, just because there’s snow on the roof is worth two in the bush. Thanks for the inspiration, Rory.
