I was Born Intelligent, Education Ruined Me.

I am in a room with twenty seven faces scribbling on a sheet of paper. A moment that could define their future while for me yet another boring day as a lecturer. Having done an MBA from an international school had had no meaning and in fact barrelled me down in a professional heap.

But for these 20 year olds, it is the beinning. They could evolve to become CEOs and Presidents. The world is their footstool but for what they write in those sheets of paper. Our educational system has been reduced to just these sheets of paper. All we do is give exams and grade and consequently be graded. Our lives are just now numbers - 90%, 40% and so on. It does not matter whether you are intelligent or brain dead, as long as you can gobble up texts and vomit them on paper, you are deemed a star,

We forget to learn from history. Geniuses are not born through examinations. Albert Einstein, Bill Gates, Thomas Edison and the like were not products of universities. They were common men who who worked hard through their own calibre and determination and whose names nations will remember. My paper degree would only go to dust. But you 20year olds scribbling on paper still have a chance, wake up!
