Life In India

Part 10

Did I ever told any of you guys about education and parenting? Oh wait, i did tell you about parenting.

Let's see, first, a question, what is your education system, and what are you thoughts on it?

The education system here is simplistic.

The basic classes, Kindergarten, Lower and Upper, Nursery, these classes are for younglings.

After three to four years of basic classes, you will enter the numbered level classes that start from 1 and end till 12. Each class has a transition period of one year, as usual.

Till 9th grade, you are in basic, and you become a senior in the tenth grade, which is also known as boards, or high school. The beginning of true agony if you ask me, I mostly skipped all of my classes during my high school because I didn't like the teachers very much.

11 and 12 are also important, however, 11th grade is a simple filler, the 12th grade is boards all over again, and we call it inter.

From 8 to 12, the level of studies escalate so quickly that it is hard to keep up, and unless you have read, or studied the entire book of that year, you wont be able to solve even a single higher order thinking question.

After 12, we are out of school, and in for college, IIT are the best colleges in India, and it's hard to get enrolled there because they select best students from all over the country, scoring well in the exams isn't enough.

Despite being one year away from college... I have no idea how the world outside school works so don't look at me, my teachers told me about that just yesterday so that's how I know.

NEET is the level just under IIT.

And they are hard as hell, the examinations. Im honestly tired of studying because I can't catch even a little time for myself.

How bothersome, I wonder how I'll finish my other books.
