junior cook? waiter? sell clothes? sell shoes? sell ice-cream? apply at 7-11?Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Well, you try and tell me. I tried it myself and it is not what you said. If got such jobs, recommend me.
Thats the kind of job you're eligible for, if you attained O level and below. If you're looking to become a banker/lawyer, then good luck.
Dun give me rubbish you cant find a job, flip the classified for god's sake. -
Integration and calculus will be useful in more academic related work. (work = rice bowl) If you are shopkeeper at 7-11 maybe don't have to know anything beyond counting and algebra bah.Originally posted by LinYu:To me, the education system sux. Ask the student what is intergration, calculus etc and they will be able to do this sum. Ask them how thay can use it it everyday life they will go er....
They should be taught things that will help them in life such as keeping a balance in their finance. We have got graduates with degree but already a bankrupt even before stepping into the society working.
This should be the changes made, not some stupid Chinese B etc.
Things that are useful in life .. imho it is mostly about some basic knowlege and some sense. but who is to say biz and accounting graduates will not go bankrupt even though they have the most knowledge?
chinese B .. issit even enough for you to be able to read what's written in Wanbao? Wanbao gossips cannot be found in ST and New Paper one .. haha -
1 thing i dont understand is, why thru trains?
i mean, you dont get your o levels, then straight away go poly?
what if the person flopped in poly and dropped out?
no nothing man... only a small small PSLE cert, which i dont think is gonna help much in career finding
but then, if they were to implement this thru trains, i think it is gonna implement on those good schs only... small chance for neighbourhood sch. it always happen this way -
totally true, every 1/2 a yr or so we see dat fella implementing new things...Originally posted by CoolMyth:All I know it's becoming a rojak system.
I don't even know what's going on anymore.
Talk about impressing your bosses. You're changing the entire system!
when u throw a pebble into a pond, u see nice ripples...then those who watch will smile, then b4 the ripples subsides u throw another pebble in....u get superimposed ripples....u get a frown....if u throw the 3rd one in still.....they throw u in next....
Rule of thumb : Never implement something when u haven even see the result of the last change. -
