Title: Woo hoo!
Post by: Crypticflare on May 03, 2004, 03:24 PM
I had to take my entrace exam today for Information Systems Technology to determine what bracket I'd be included for classes, I scored a 87/100

Hooray, I get to go to college!

Look out student loan bills here I come

eww, I've been working all through my student life so I won't end up in debt.  It's much nicer not worrying about bills.

Get to?  What kind of screwed up community do you live in where a single test determines whether you "get to" go to college?  If you failed the friggin thing you'd still get to go.  You might have to start at a community college, but you're always guaranteed acceptance.

Maybe he lives in France.

Edit: Actually, iirc, even there you can still go if you fail the test; the government just won't give you a free ride.

I'd still get to go, but the score on the test determines the level of class they'd start me out with, ie a failed test I'd be sent to a class that teaches you the mastermind behind the mouse, and how to operate your computer monitor. Yes, I do get some type of financial aide for a good test result, I'm the first one in my area to even attempt it (since I live in hicksville) so I felt like this was a good random life scenario.
