We nearly force ourselves to death just to get that piece of paper that says '8 A's'. In my opinion, to quote you, this 'midnight oil-burning' isn't really for the marks, but is actually caused by the irrational fear of 'losing'. We certainly do not practise what we 'preach' in our essays - that losing is the key to winning (a Chinese proverb); On the other hand, we are eternally afraid of getting lower marks than our peers and 'falling classes'. However, I think as long as you start revision early and pay attention in class, in addition to good time management, you can live your social life. It all comes down to discipline and time.

In fact, this morning I heard on RTM1, that more and more students prone to commit suicide. One of the factors (in the guest opinion) is the exam oriented education system.<BR/>However, if you ask me what is the opinion, I may tell you that Malaysian education system is indeed trying to make Malaysian Jack-of-all-trade. That is why you can actually find a lot of talented and intelligent Malaysian students oversea... Far more in front of the others!<BR/>On the other hand, we did feel the tension. Yet, secondary and primary schools are just too easy in contrast with tertiary education. We have less assignments, but the works are too tedious!<BR/>So, choose your destiny!

Even on Fridays when we usually yell out 'Freedom', some students are sent off for further tuition classes. Some may feel grand that they're putting in extra time for their studies but I just feel sad for them. I feel sadder for parents who don't give their kids a break.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I'm so glad I was born earlier, in the late 80s, so during my primary school years, it wasn't as hectic as it is now. Now, students as young as Standard 1 are being sent for tuition classes. That is crazy! When I was in Std 1, studies were the last thing on my mind. Well, if I had homework, then I did them. My parents would make sure I did them actually. After that, it was the playground for me. :D<BR/><BR/>Yeah I know that the competition is tougher nowadays. But we do need to take a break sometimes, you know. So what if you didn't score all As? It's not the end of the world. Don't be silly as to hang a piece of rope around your neck. You still have other choices. You just gotta have faith in yourself. :)Josettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16398849417612962089noreply@blogger.com
