NCAE, unbearable pressure

NCAE or the National Career Assessment Examination puts a atom-hilled shoe on us.

The exam evaluates students’ general scholastic abilities but also adds several new test layers, including technical-vocational aptitude, occupational interests and entrepreneurial skills.
The new test components allow parents and their children to assess career options based on the students’ skills towards any field of interest. It can also be basis for students’ goals towards college and possible entrepreneurial capabilities.

That was it supposedly, but it is different story in our institution.

Just recently I'd post about our school, it has very good reputation when it comes to the scholastic records which pressures us most. It had rank 4th nationwide last examinations and been garnering recognitions from different institution. This time its our batch turn to write the history again, not just write the previous history but outdo it.

We are the tenth group of scholars in the region XII science high school composed of 55 supposedly worthy individuals. During our four years in the curriculum we had been hersheyed as the poorest batch of all. Teachers always see us as repulsive and irresponsible students of all(there are exceptions of course). There are hundreds of issues in our batch. There are also good gal and bad jerks(I'm one of them). They even picture us out as undeserving sholars. They perceive us as outlaws of the society. But for me it's just okay to act like this because we are teens right? We are just starting to discover the world in much mature view. But I know also there are limitations.

This time our school is relying on us to record another elevated result and those are making us freaks. They are anticipating another outdid performance. I don't know. I suppose it's just an assessment exam. But their inculcating in us that's it our duty to write another history. I am a bit doubtful if it's our future or it's their elusive pride is hanging. We are ask to review this and study that. Scolding here scolding there. But there is one thing I'm quite sure about.

We are the scholars of our region,accept it or not we are pressured to excel. NCAE can be an oppurtunity for us to showcase our abilities or to downgrade our reputation. Whatever purpose it is, we should prove our worthy, verify our intellect and most of all show them our versatility.

Go go batchten. Go for gold.
