CCA Certificate Crap. Or the CCC.
After an hour of a pointless e.math timed practice after school, followed by 2.5 hours of a tedious a.math timed practice by you-know-who, I’m not too sure whether my senses are still functioning. But here goes.
Yay, rant time.

Ok, today we got our CCA certificates, and the CCA points system is damn well screwed. Well, for a start, I got 27 points — decently above the 25 point mark required for an A1 — fair enough.
But it’s disturbing to find out what others get. The teachers, for one, are to blame. Let’s see… I have lots of missing CIP hours, including ones like the 10 hours from the 45th Anniversary, plus 12 hours of Primary School Science Quizzes, just to name two. Ok, not that CIP can give me much more points anyway.
And there’s the occasional (verging on frequent) mistakes made by the teachers. XJ got whaaaat… 4 points for RJC Astrigue? And I get 3. Yessss one point, but it does make a difference, considering that I got 2 miserable points above the A1 mark. And other CCAs get 3 points for a silverish achievement when they’re supposed to get 2. Bleh.
And the worst of all? CCA Council. I’m not too sure whether the teachers are to be blamed here, but definitely it has gotta do with one of them at the very least. Ok, my logic? CCA Council are leaders in their CCA, getting among the highest possible points obtainable through leadership in CCAs. But well, on top of that, they get an additional 3 leadership points (yeah that’s a hell lot of points for leadership) for being in the CCA Council. So the rich gets richer, and in this case, it gives the doods with loads of leadership points, more points. And what do they do in the CCA Council? “Nothing” is a good start.
But well, an A1′s an A1. And the only thing I’m glad about the cert is that it’s four pages long, spammed with achievements =D
So I’ll enjoy laughing at DW for now until he gets his A1. :-)
