neil82 1,080 Posted August 23 Report Share Posted August 23 More and more getting top grades and all the schools patting themselves on the back bragging on how well they`ve done but its not going to be too long before all get top marks, thing then is how do you tell who are the really clever ones, the ones who are going to be your doctors and top engineers and scientists, we are going to end up either importing others who have come through an education system that produces meaningfull grades or as a country go backwards, as for degrees. look at how many are up to their eyeballs in debt, no way of ever paying it off and are employed filling shop sheves or flipping burgers, education and the way its graded here is going down the toilet rapidly.
