There was a programme on television about this controversial debate and it was found that they were no easier than before.

We are a growing technological generation, moreso than before and so are better and evolution tells us that things improve slightly through the generations.

I'm holding my ground on this issue, we are put under more examinaination pressure than say thirty years ago.


Really, the exams kids have today are much easier than they used to be.

I no longer teach as I can't stand gobby little herberts who are thick as two short planks and get into college with A grades and are incapable of doing the work needed.


yes the school themes today have changed since i was in school. back then you had to know everything and rarely got multiple choice questions. now the premise is you don't have to know it as long as you know how to find the answer.
The only stupid question is a question not asked.  


Win•dows: n. A thirty-two bit extension and graphical shell to a sixteen-bit patch to an eight-bit operating system originally coded for a four-bit microprocessor which was written by a two-bit company that can\'t stand one bit of competition.

No it doesn't.

Read this carefully.

THE STUDENTS IN COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES ARE LESS INTELLIGENT THAN STUDENTS OF 10/15 YEARS AGO, YET THEY GET HIGHER GRADES IN THEIR GCSE'S/A-LEVELS' EXAMINATIONS.

I KNOW THIS BECAUSE UNTIL 4 MONTHS AGO I WAS A LECTURER IN FURTHER AND HIGHER EDUCATION ESTABLISHMENTS.

That clear enough?

the results will reflect this, for example more people leave unversity degree courses with lower classifications.

Im coming to the conclusion however that university is a load of bollocks, where is my {bleep}ing software engineering job eh??

While all my mates were at Uni doing CS degrees (mid-90's) I was busy earning myself lots of money as a coder. :-D

Some advice Nadeem;  Get yourself out of Wales if you want a decent job coding.  Specialise in a tool that doesn't have much competition for contracts too.

Worked for me anyway. :-)
