Towards A Bitter-Sweet Future


                 National Career Assessment Examination also known as NCAE is an aptitude test wherein the students answer the questionnaires based on what they learn from the past years, self assessment, career awareness and career guidance. NCAE also measures the potential or inclination of students in such areas regarding their future course. This year all the third year students take this exam last August 2012, the students were arranged in alphabetical order, 30 students were set per room they are to take the exam starting at 8 o'clock am up to 3 o'clock in the afternoon, it was more or less five hours.

            NCAE was merely composed of nine skills/ability test; mainly scientific ability which is about basic science concepts that I truly enjoyed, mathematical ability is about, of course Math but basic math only no large numbers or complicated equations attached, reading comprehension about what you have understand in the story it is mainly a test for memory, verbal ability, manipulative skills, clerical ability, non-verbal ability, entrepreneurial skills it is about entrepreneurship which determines the ability of an individual in business  and the OIISSS which is about on what habit or thing do you want to do, its main purpose is to see what career best suites a person. This things doesn't require reviewing for answers, no hard physics or chemistry question, no deep calculus, trigonometry and geometry questions, it is just based on your basic skills ans knowledge, no hassle at all.

          The importance of NCAE is too guide future college students on what course they really want to study, because for a high school student it is hard to choose between what you like the most, I know students like me have lots of option on what course they will take on college, but there are lots of questions in their mind lik, do I really like that? Will I pass the board if ever I take that course? Will I survive studying that course? so many questions keep on bothering each and everyone's mind at least when they got the result of the NCAE they will got a bigger picture the best career that suites them so that they will not be unemployed due to mismatched careers.The best way to predict our future is by creating it.
