Your brain worth ten bucks only (o__O)

Please don't get it wrong.. It's not what you think it is (whatever you think it is, though!) Okay so this would (and should!) be my respond towards the MOE (Ministry of Education) regulation on limiting the numbers of A's that you can get... If you have been surfing on Malaysia's news-site for the past 3-4 years, you would have noticed the number of A's that the smartest student in Malaysia could achieve to get... ("-__-) It's scary, though, number-of-A-wise... They can get up to 20 A's (the newest Malaysia's top student for year 2008, Nik Nur Madihah)... So the ministry set up a rule saying that by the year of 2010 Malaysian can only take up to a limit of 10 A's... Well it's not that big of an issue.. Still, it got me thinking... At my school (and believe, some whole bunch of schools out there - in Malaysia, too) sits to 11 subject, or maybe 12 depending on their course.. It could be pure science(9A), science + religious study(11A), science + engineering study(10A), and some more... So what's the big deal? Well, if there are students who took 11A not coz of their own choice, but because of the course they've choosen, isn't that rule a kind of disadvantage to them? Well apparently he (the Minister for MOE cum deputy prime minister) said that he had done a research(s).. I'm not so sure though, how far that research of his had gone... Still I do hope that the rule be revised (yet again) and set the limit up to 15A (-_^), just in case they'll be needing the other extra 5A... Okay I'm done talking!
