    are any of you doing a college course in the UK, have you too been lumbered by the big fucking waste of time known as "key skills", because i have for the past three years

    why does the government keep making them a necessary part of each course, i've spent the past two hours playing snakes - when my time could be spent at home playing super monkey ball ( )

    it takes up about 9 or so hours a week, and has done for all three courses ive done so far, and it's the equivalent of g..c.s.e's ffs who in their right mind would want to do gcse's on a course they signed up for to fix computers, it's just not needed and it's a huge waste of time, and above all else, it's mandatory

    since you seem to know the entire course why not ask you professor to give you the exam now?

    I had to do a similar thing for A-levels. It was only 2 hours a week but was mandatory. Pointless lessons which included a self awareness module, a Spanish 4 hour course (), something called O.S.P. - I didn't know what it meant and still don't and other rubbish I can't remember now.

    There wasn't an exam but you passed based on your attendence ... so I just chatted about stuff with the other people in the classroom
    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -

    As a certified GCSEFFS Administrator, I will now give you the exam.
    Should you fail to pass - you will be sentenced to 20 years of MicrosoftEnglish and counting piss drops on toilet floors.
    Should you pass - you will be granted extra points per super monkey ball score.
