Media BTEC my foot

Now for those of you who aren't aware what a BTEC is, well let me put it to you...

it is a qualification designed to enhance the academia of idiotic people who don't have the patience for A-levels.

Yes fair enough for those working class average students it is a whole lot easier, as the grade is determined by the quality of your coursework, but check this out..

right now I'd rather sit in a surprise English mock exam and fail, than sit here and fill in stupid amounts of sheets that complete a booklet of utter nonsense, ready for me to comment on crime dramas today.

I'll probably sit here and make up a crime drama on the spot regardless of copyright and other sentimental bullshit that you may decide to pick up on, however my point is I don't want to do it, simply because it's totally undermining my intelligence and downgrading the teachers too.

I am sure commenting on the demographic content on a typical crime drama isn't going to give me the power of making pigs fly, it could... but it doesn't I'm afraid.

Makes me so annoyed that I can sit here spending endless hand movement writing so much shit, excuse my french, because quite frankly (the Alevel teachers can back me up on this one) I could be sat here making pretty mind maps for revision or indulging in love texts for English. I don't need the insight of media to understand it, I know how the Media works, its all lies ready fro the consumer to do his thing and engulf itself with whatever is being said around them.

That's mainly the reason why I want to work for the media as a Journalist, because it wouldn't matter whether what I was saying was right or wrong, or true, at the end of the day you will always read what you see or listen to what people are talking about regardless of it's true validity.

Anyway this time could have been spent on defining key terms such as "Hammocking" but right now I'd rather burn the booklet and swallow the ashes than to laugh at how stupid all this is.

But yes folks, don't do BTEC's, they are...well absolute garbage.
