The SAT's that we have here in the UK are a waste of time as well. Although GCSE's form the basis for whatever you do in life.

Rubbish!
Gcse's are a mere step somewhere else, they mean zilch, pure zilch!
a degree is worthless unless a first. Well, no a degree is a degree, but unless a first - any other grade really dosen't matter.

what do you wanna do mr Jams?

hey, Big bal, are like a commie are something?
Get a job?
sheesh!

by the way, we speak English, you speak English. Perhaps you learn it.

Mr Jams, don't pander to these can't speak, won't speak English cross ponders!

best, BB

basically, these days, unless you are rich, education has become a waste of time and a big fat joke...certainly in england, the tories and new labour after them, have ruined the education system

ACTs and SATs aren't a complete waste of time...they do get you scholarships, if you do really well. Not to mention the fact that I know someone who got perfect scores on both and is now a mini-celeb around here.

ah well sixth form college is a laugh, and no one really knows what they want to do at that age ... barring doing lots of girls of course ... (or boys, depending who is reading this)

Er, Jammi ... i must say your spelling is atrocious mate!

*nods knowingly over at LCOU *

English education ... the best and the worst in the world!

('ere Chrys, you been in touch with TD at all?)
