Exam Oriented Country.. Public Exams...

What comes to mind the moment you say that a person is a Primary or Secondary School student in Malaysia..?

Well, in my case, I'm always asked about how i performed in my Public Exams.
That is the question almost every student who has passed their standard 6 gets.Especially if you are an Upper Secondary School students.

People are becoming more obsessed about the exams by the minute.
Everything is about your Public Exams.
It's a phenomenon that hits the country every time the results of the exams are out..
It becomes the main topic in the news .. whether it is on television or in the papers..

Students go to school just for the sake of preparing for the Public Exams..
We are focusing too much on Public Exams, instead of teaching the students to be better people who have knowledge they can put to good use after their school days.

Now, most of the students I know don't even know why they learn a certain subject other than the fact that they will be tested in their Public Exams which are: Ujian Penilaian Sekolah Rendah (UPSR)taken when you are 12 years old, Penilaian Menengah Rendah (PMR) when you are 15 , Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM)when you are 17 and Sijil Tinggi Pelajaran Malaysia (STPM)at the age of 19.

We have got to use a different approach with the students in order for us to really appreciate what we are learning and help contribute to the country with what we have learned from school..

I think this is a topic that is certainly worth a few opinions..
So,, to all of you who think they have their own opinions to share,, I am open to them,, no matter if you are a student, parent or even a teacher,, everyone's opinion matters..

Eager for your opinions....

"Aiyyah...Teenager these ah..."

"Aiyyah... teenagers these days ah.. not like us last time..."

That is normally what u hear from all the older citizens in Malaysia now..
Practically anywhere i go.. especially with my parents, I hear adults talking about this issue..

I mean.. come on.. not all teenagers are like that..

Don't judge all of us just because of a few bad apples..

It's not fair for all of us who actually really work hard to be better people..
yes,,we play around here and there.. i can't deny that fact..but we don't over do it..
there is a limit.. and we know what it is..
Believe me..We try our best to achieve goals and standards that have practically been set for us.. mind you.. they are quite high standards.. talk about pressure..


I guess I'm speaking 4 all the teenagers out there when we say..
"it ain't that easy living life as a teenager nowadays"..
There is just so much going on in the world.. we are expected to keep up..
so we step up the pace.. It's just that sometimes we make the wrong decisions.. but i think that's normal because we are just learning.. Everyone makes mistakes.. We learn from our mistakes and move on from there..

I just want to set things straight and tell everyone that..
We are people on a mission who have our own vision..
so watch out for the next generation of successfull teenagers..
