Truthfulness so often goes with ruthlessness
Area of Math and Science needs to improve.
Puntland has its own test. I don't think you can say it is doing bad/good relative to other regions when their performance cannot be compared.
We are technological buffs from the ICT grades. It's probably cause we know tech makes life easier(lazy by nature and see tech as savior) , that's why I went into IT for that and the money at the time was great considering their isn't much down-time you need to study it. Infact you don't need qualifications most of the time and can reach 300k without even doing managerial role.
I must say the culture is the problem in ICT nowadays not so much the tech, they make it harder then it has to be and forget tech purpose is to make it easier.
I hate maths also especially the number crunching stuff, that's like coding where you crunch syntaxes. Does maths have an area like coding does for algorithms? I am sure Puntland would do well in that. It's better we stick to areas about ideas and design above the syntax stuff. It's like the prophets they had scribes right, but the ideas were from the prophet. Every industry is the same you have idea people the creators or inventors, planners and the guys who work it out or translate the idea into real terms(algorithm, architects, strategists, etc) then makers or innovators (coders, builders, maths people on numbers, coders writing up code, etc they put it together after they given the design specifications), then you should have support guys or the doers after that(the guys that just keep it maintained on daily basis).
All life breaks up on those lines and we should stream students early on where they're strength is rather then applying this plantation system of making everyone the same when we have different strengths and capabilities. We should feed off each other strengths and not trying to compete against each other or make each other one and the same thing.
Why is there such a big gap between math and other science subjects like physics, chemistry and biology? Is there a difference in level and degree of difficulty I.e. advanced math courses and intermediate psychics, chemistry courses?
And what do those numbers even mean? Is it average mark? Percentile graduates?
