Egyptian Educational System of Corruption

          Since the downfall of the Egyptian educational system in 1980 , the system has been study to earn grades ... earn grades because only the grade you get on your certificate is the only thing that will get you a job and it will define which college you will enter and it will maybe according to some till the rise of the Private Universities meant his/her life.

But we all forgot to answer the simple question that has been wandering around for the last 30 years ... what is the implication of letting this corrupt idea of studying to evolve in the educational system. what effects will it has on the students , let alone their idea of education. When someone gets used to doing something one way it is really hard to change his way , try to Quit any habit you do and see how hard it is , even if it is a bad habit.

30 years of Memorizing how the exam will come , and how to answer the question and not learning to be able to answer whatever question related to what you have studied even if you didn't see that sort of question before. Memorizing instead of understanding , having stupid syllabuses that make the students unenthusiastic to learn from the first place .

Uneducated teachers teaching the students in unprofessional way not understanding that the techniques in which you deliver an information is what defines a teacher.

  1. I'd like to add something, I was an IGCSE student, the syllabus and exams are made in the UK so it's supposed to be a way to run from our horrible education system for 3 years.
    But to my surprise, our teachers have found a way to teach IG courses as if they're Thanaweyya Amma (we are geniuses in figuring out new ways to memorize O_O), and they make us solve ALL previous exams of that course (sometimes went back as far as early 90s!), so whatever exam they try to make, almost all the questions will have to look like a question from a previous exam, and so stupidity wins :S

GUC Engineering 2012-2013 Newcomers Advice's

1) The first year is the most important year , you will be studying few number of courses each semester and each course will have large number of credit hours like mathematics which weighs 8 credit hours , so You need to score a high grade in the first year and believe me when I say that the first year is the easiest so if you got a A or A+ in your first year rest assured that this will help you during your next 4 years plus if you adjusted yourself to a studying style that guarantees to you a good grade you will stick to this style for the next years in college as you will be adapted to it. 2) If you are the kind of person who studies only 2 weeks before exams , this will NOT work at the GUC and will cause you sometimes to fail some courses if you are not usually a studying person type so in order to avoid this , Please study week by week and finish what you have first , sometimes you will have deadlines that will make you postpone studying for some time and this is normal at t...

How to manage your time in college effectively??? (Part 3)

College is all about building your personality and enhancing your character and be able to gain real life experiences but how can you manage your time effectively in it to gain the most benefit?!!. In the last two articles we mentioned some time management points, now there is an important point that needs to be addressed. SOCIAL ACTIVITIES or ACTIVE WORKING GROUPS (AWG). This topic is really important for every student in every faculty in every field . Participating in social activity or in any AWG that interest you is really important for almost all students, and the reason for that is the fact that you gain access to interaction with people from different point of views and gain real life experience. If we took the MUN activity at the GUC for example, it is one of the prestigious activities that are held every year and give the student more chance to research into global politics and to understand how the world is moving around him and to be able to make decisions based on the in...

What Should we do when we have an internal battle between what's right and what should be done?

We have all passed through this stage , where you have your morals , principles tested about doing what is right and doing what should be done. It is strange really because we usually take the easy way out and do what should be done , in some situation we look at the greater good and in others we try to value which will get us in less trouble. But we miss the most important point, Principles are made to be as reference point for us like a beacon so as not to walk in the wrong direction . At the same time we cannot ignore the fact that we as human beings are emotional , we may try to bend our principles over for some emotional fact that we need to feed or for the need of the feeling that we are not just machines who abide by certain rules. I believe that sometimes most of us bend or break their principle at least once or twice during their life time for the above two reasons. It is not a shame in-fact that's what makes us humans, but the most important questions is How far are yo...
