Before you start, I have spent the last half an hour trying to find a suitable category to put this essay into... "Oh it's an Edexcel paper. That'll be why I got an E instead of an A" An 18 year old A Level student explains why our education system ... Read review

A very eye opening detailed opinion. Being a good few years past my own school days, and not having children of my own, I honestly wasn't aware how bad things were with all this. V. by vialdana

Ah, I remember it well! Multiple exam boards and lucky you if you got the Cambridge exam papers! What a lousy system it has turned into. You have to have consistency across the board and enough staff to carry the job through properly. In the end it's the reputation of British education that suffers as well as students like yourself who must sometimes be left wondering how well you really did DESPITE having received your exam results! by sdwill

Well, you may or may not know that I am half way through my MBA with the Open University and what that entails is an exhausting three year course which drains your resources, although it is great fun and challenging too. Anyway, it was my husband that bo ... Read review

seems like agood book for management grads.. shall recommend it to my friends :) happiness always, Pallavi by jilmil

Grief - I thought I was living in a bad dream there for a moment - brave woman - mine has been tucked to the back of the wardrobe never to see the light of day again - I didn't enjoy this book whatsoever, apart from anything trying to revise with it balanced on my knee on the settee transpired to be the best cure for insomnia I have discovered in years - its quite ironic when I was doing my degree it was Thompson that was all the rage - and I hated that then, but now compared to this it definitely has got a bit of an airing over the last year - its amazing how little these books really change from edition to edition - usually just the chapter numbers and sometimes the case studies if something more interesting comes along - although the Man U one was particularly interesting. Good luck with your 2nd year - I am just starting fully on my thesis - and having now seen your profile and work background I might be back to pick your brains (if you have time - I am truly glad mine is over - if I knew then what I know now).
