B.E.C.E vrs WAEC
B.E.C.E VRS WAEC
We have all been students before. Of course I know because if not, you could not read the title. Thanks to your teacher and your very own efforts.
If you have been a student before, the probability that you wrote exams is 100 to none. You can't pass through the system without writing exam or a test.
Uuuj
You will bear me a great witness. Exam is not a bed of roses. Generally in the world and particularly in Ghana. Exam is not easy. One does not only have to burn the midnight oil, but also the morning, afternoon and evening oils as well. if not, you will only find yourself wanting. I bet you will sweat like a pregnant ant.
I asked several questions I could not find answers to when I heard some papers have been cancelled. Another Burden on the young folks.
I asked.
Whose fault?
The one who is writing the exam or the one who is supervising it?
Whose fault?
The one who bought the questions or the one who sold it to him?
Whose fault?
The student, the parent, the teacher, the supervisors, the examination council or whoever?
On our page this afternoon, the discussion began.
Hubert commenced: "Even in the university questions leak. We are a joke of a country"
Sammy garnished it: "We are a joke of a country. From President to madmen!"
Snow was a bit more empathetic and said: "Listening to the education minister, I've come to the conclusion that the BECE questions should be written on the blackboard for the students to answer"
KofiArkoh probed further: "But, won't the person who will write it on the board have a prior knowledge before the exam start? I think maybe the finger of God has to write it on the wall. Then, We can only have a foolproof system"
Call it systemic failure!
Call it lack of intergrity!
Call it porous system!
I am sitting by a good friend, and he is so much annoyed with the situation that he almost screamed: " Other countries, when you are not able to eschew your duties as officer, you take responsibility and the blame and resign nobly"
Here, 200 people will die and still the 'dancing beared man' still clings to his seat.
Here, basic school exam questions leak and the lady officer tightens her seat belt.
Here, a minister of state will 'mess up' at Brazil and they will only promote him to another position.
Sadly, Prince Biney concluded: "It's pathetic being a Ghanaian and worse living in Ghana"
I throw it back to you!
