🔴 **The exam paradox**

The Oxford Scientist

_"The grass is not greener on any side, because no amount of A/A* grades can replace the raw, unfiltered experiences of growing up; we only have one childhood and often we must make sacrifices for our future self. The current job market is saturated with graduates—a degree on its own is no longer as valuable as it used to be­—and you need more than good grades to stand out."_

Now finishing up last week of exams for the semester and found this on our dining room table. Hmm, fitting for this year.

And it doesn't hurt to prepare for it as well if you can.

1963

After the Second World War, Britain’s education system suffered a setback when a child’s future depended on the result of the Eleven-plus exam. Success meant a place in a grammar school, with the prospect of higher education. Failure meant relegation to a Secondary Modern school, stifling the prospects of late developers.

Here’s a sample question from the Eleven-plus exam. Did you/would you pass the exam?

Would be great to see TV and media outlets interview students who gained grades 3 or 4 and realise that for many students that is a huge achievement.
Too much fixation on top end grades and the A level route.
(In the UK 16 year olds get their national exam results today.)
