Who here likes the system of Education in Egypt?

Question

I think it's fine, up until your 15 - 17 where you study for 1 year straight for your exams in june or july i think and then you have to do the same again for another year. And then your marks from the exams you have done decide what university you go too.

That's the only bit i don't like in the system of education in Egypt..

What's your opinion?

Answer 1

education in egypt sucks big time, pardon my french but it really does!!
1-children have to carry "all" the books they have to school everyday, which isnt healthy for them or their backbones.
2-the syllabus in itself, is lousy, kids just memorize everything throw it up on the exam paper then erase it from their brains, so now its not education, its just means of passing the year safely.
3-above all, a person's career and future depends on his marks in highschool, thats bullsh*t, cause some students dont deserve to study at medical school but they do anyways, cause they memorize pretty well, how can we let those "cure" people and diagnose their illness?
4-there is no tests as prerequisites to enroll in each faculty, for example, how can a student who doesnt know how to read arabic and pronounce words, get into mass communication and major in TV and broadcast, while other perfect ones cant do that cause they needed an extra 0.01%.
5-C class and below schools allow teachers to beat students, that few years ago a teacher hit a little kid with the keys in his eyes, he lost his eyes, what kinda education is that for God's sake??!!.
6-schools nowadays dont differ from homeschooling, cause students simply learns nothing there, and count only on private lessons, even very clever students take private lessons just because its a tradition now.
7-for the last 8 years or somethin, we hear grades like 107%, 110%, this is so weird, and so demotivating to students, as they begin to forget about their dream faculties as its very close to "impossible" to reach it anyways, i mean c'mon is getting a 107% easy?
8-those respectable so called "university professors" get their kids to study at top faculties regardless of their grades, and also get them among the staff too, arent those professors supposed to be role models to the students? this is so disappointing to them.
and many many other points, but thats enough for now, we dont need more pessimism.

Answer 2

well im egyptian but all my studies were in america. i hear ppl in egypt saying the education in egypt is a nightmare. it is very hard and u have to study all yr and u wud be lucky if u do not die of a heart attack during ur exams. it is very complicated also, they hate to make things easy on students. at the end when they graduate, a huge percentage of them end up unemployed or they get jobs for a very low salaries thats why they all want to travel to another country to get a better job opportunity with a looot more paying salary

Answer 3

Maybe I don't have much to add to the above opinions,but all what I can say is that is one of my main concerns about my Son's future,he is still to young to go to even a nursery put I 'm thinking all the time how could I get him into a school whom had a good level of education as even the private school where you pay a lot of money you still can't guarantee the level of education on it,so god help our kids

Answer 4

u mean Thanaweya Amma (the nightmare of all Egyptians) :) but i have to disagree with you, when i say that the education system in Egypt is a big failure (I'm really very sad to say that). It depends only on how you fill ur mind with loads and loads of non-updated subjects, and throw it in the exam literally, and then forget what you memorized. in other words it only depends on memorizing and not understanding. The best educating i had was the last year in col ledge (commerce english section- business). coz we only depended the projects and the presentations we made in exams, which really worked for all of us.

Anyways, i really wish from the bottom of my heart that we have a better education system, coz we really need to develop our minds.

Answer 5

The educational system in Egypt stinks.All Egyptians hate it.
Education in Egypt is the worst thing in Egypt. And it is not because we hate Egypt, we love it , that's why we wanna change the stinking system

Answer 6

i studied for a long period of time abroad then came back and started studying in egypt i have to say that what we call here education isnot related to education from any point as all the student here just wnat to pass there are no sylluboss in the schools ( which we call schools) no good enough teachers,even theire are no any facilities they have , nothing . bottom line there is no good atmosphere for education in schools or in the houses of the student as all of them take privet lessons at home so they don't concentrate at school although his teacher at home is his class teacher so there musn't be any diffrence.
lets go to collage system i go to privet collage ( one of the best ones) but my friends go to normal university mostly cairo university lets talk about my collage first students their don't respect the docters (although the docters there respect them greatly ) they only want to pass and understand nothing,these student have the best facilities and best syllubes but all that they want to do is how to humilate the docter infront of them as they think that they own them by the money they pay. mean while its alittle diffrent in cairo university as students have to respect docters
while docters don't respest them thery treat students as ****, they are not allowed to ask or say that they don't underatnd and are supposed to buy their super expensive books and notes which if u read them u will understand nothing from.
bottom line there is somthing wrong on both sides the governmental side and the home side as parents teach their children that they own the persone infornt of them aslong as they pay him on the other side the government tries to buetify the reality so they see it beutiful so they don't tend to imprpove it. so we can say its not the system problem its peoples problem problem of behavior and respect

Answer 8

Education in egypt?i lived there, there are no education in egypt, may be education of hate, it sucks man...... let me explain
1-schools:-
are filled with children, forbidden to play , no sports at all, no hygienic measures, **** bathrooms, its bull ****

2-colleges and universities:
egyptians classify colleges as top colleges ( medicine, dentistry, veterinary, pharmacy ) and others ! look others, education in all the world respect all categories except in Egypt!
-no education all the aim of Doctors, professors to collect money as much as possible from students , like books , cheets, sheets !, shits ! , any thing bring the ****** money to their pockets
- the professors are GODs in universities, no one can ask them to explain anything , talk with them, contact them, FORBIDDEN,no research, every body steel from others ,
- if the professor hate a student he can make him not go out from the college ( like the prison )! he will say to him i will not make u go out from here.
- all high degrees are only to sons and daughters of professors ( come on Egyptians are on middle ages ) if u have somebody ( called KOSA in egypt!!!!) u will pass all youe exams, u will even have a post in college !
-christians there are forbidden to success, and if they enter oral examination they got the lowest degrees !
- post graduate students steal work and effort of other old students, plus a good gift to the one who supervise your research( like a cellular phone ) will solve all solutions.
