[CAMBODIA 2009] High School exam result - greatest score among many years of exam?

CAMBODIA 2009 - Hum, it was amazing for high school result announced in late 21-22 August, last week, as most of students pass (67,377 students - roughly 78 percent).

Seem there are many students who passed with grade B and C but I haven't got exactly info about how many people with those grades, especially grade A; I'm sure if grade A may have many more than previous years or what, as heard seem it has many.

Even most students pass exam but due to some situations of cheating while exam time really difficult to see how real capacity of the students yet.

I just hope they really have real capacity to build our country.

[CAMBODIA 2009] New technology threaten quality of high school exam

CAMBODIA 2009 - Through my work place's window, I watched out to see crowd of students and their relative leaving the school gate to home or maybe party. It was time to finish the high school exam, one interesting exam in Cambodia of all lives and they are just waiting the result by 21st of August as well.

During the exam days, it was so silence outside each school I passed by, my wondered questions came out from my mind if the exam fair enough? I still keep to find out the bad points of such exam because it doesn't mean that if most of the students pass exam with most good score will show that the exam was fair but the atmosphere during the exam will show one part among big mistakes.

What I found out, the exam was faced new challenge with technology. Some students using mobile phones to call or MMS the exam to outside and got result through calling or MMS back. I got knowing this through one person who has a relative did the exam said that she gave two expensive mobile phones to her brother in order to send MMS outside and got back. Some groups of students also said they got call from students from exam room to ask help solving their exercises and answer to them.

So from this point of view, I feel very ashame to such activity that the controllers could not deal. These info just got from what I had seen and heard, I would see what will the press in Cambodia say about the exam, what will the ministry evaluate the result with a reasonable in the fact we found out? During the correction will there have any bribe, little or much?

After the result announces, I'll keep asking those questions to the students to findout if what I heard and saw during these days happen every where in Cambodia or not.

[CAMBODIA 2009] High School exam started today

CAMBODIA 2009 - High school exam started today, 27th of July in this year. There are 88,698 candidates with 155 exam centers and 3,578 rooms. The result will announce on 21st of August for Phnom Penh area and 22nd of August for provincial area.

Hope this exam event proceeds with peacefully, fairly and successfully.

NO CORRUPTION will show the right ability of the students. Will see and reflect on the result after I meet some students.

Exam results show gender divide

Written by Khoun Leakhana

Thursday, 02 October 2008

Girls easily out performed boys in August's high school exams, prompting a Ministry of Education plan to re-engage a generation of disinterested male students ALMOST 40 percent of males failed their high school exams compared with just over 30 percent of girls, according to the Kingdom's latest set of exam results. The growing gender gap is leading officials to develop a plan of action, but they remain unclear on how best to tackle the disturbing trend. "We need to investigate why more male students are failing their exams than female," said Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport Secretary of State Pith Chamnan. "One of the simple explanations is that male students do not study as hard, and we need to work with the parents of male students on this problem." He said that the results were not caused by government policy. Just 65.92 percent of male students passed the high school exam this year, compared with 77.26 percent of females. The ministry says it is preparing an action plan to encourage male high school students to pay more attention to studies. Similar findings have long been identified in Western countries, including the US, Australia and parts of Europe. One American study says that girls have a better understanding of social cues and are more disciplined. Superior female achievement in high school continues into university, with more females enrolling and completing their degrees. In the United States in 2004, 58 percent of all bachelor degrees were earned by women. Im Sithe, Secretary of State in the Ministry of Women's Affairs, said that she is happy with the success of female students in Cambodia. "We [and the ministry] try very hard to make sure girls are comfortable in their studies by ... championing the importance of female education and encouraging parents to send their daughters to school," she said. Rong Chhun, President of the Cambodian Independent Teachers Association, said the results worry his organisation. "We have many examples that prove boys are more likely than girls to act up and skip class if their parents are not strictly observing their study," he said. En Vannak, 42, a mother and business woman from Oddar Meanchey province, agrees with his assessment. "In previous times I have not paid attention to my son's studies because I have been busy," she said. "But now I frequently contact his teachers to ask about his progress. I don't believe teachers have enough time to look after my son, so I have to take the time to follow him." Source: Phnom Penh Post

Cambodia - University Scholarship 2008

According to Kosantepheap Daily newspaper, there are 3260 students who passed high school this year got university fee scholarship to study in various universities in Cambodia. There are 11 public universities and one private university that provided the scholarship.

The way to select the scholarship based on some criteria such as for best students (60%), girls priorities (15%), poor students (15%) and very far from the city (10%).

Around the way to use for this selection, the minister of Ministry of Education said, we use computer program to manage and we need some criteria required by each university. The selection is fair and everyone glad to the selection than selection by exam. "Exam can be good only for the best students but not poor students or girls priorities..."

Personally, I was in the first start of suck kind of this selection, I felt it was not fair enough but it's better than exam because most or sometimes, the best students couldn't pass well to the state university that's because of the corruption during/after the entrant university exam. But more better if the high school exam is fair enough (no corruption during exam) so that the selection criteria for best students would be fair.

Even thought, the Ministry of Education provides the training to various teachers to explain to the student about this selection but the information is not really spread enough to them, some students I met said: "They were not clear enough about the university selection". They said they didn't understand about the Major priority because some institutes need to apply the exam before give the scholarship so they though, the priority will not apply. Example if they put 1st priority to Medicine and 2nd is Engineer... and because of Engineer need to take exam, so they though, if they are good, would get Engineer scholarship before the Medicine scholarship because of Medicine doesn't have any exam.

But as students we must think and consider all our choices different way and should get more information before any decision. Ask to the teachers about the way we understand first.

Top two students slam cheating

Written by Chhay Channyda

Friday, 05 September 2008

The only two grade-A students in Cambodia say that the government needs to do more to curb cheating and bribery to ensure that exam results really reflect students' abilities VANDY RATTANA Heng Kothai from Siem Reap province obtained 100 percent in his exams, as well as A’s in five subjects. Chhay Sopanhana was lucky to be born into a family that values learning, while Heng Kothai is a perfectionist. For both, hitting the books has paid off: they were the only students in Cambodia to receive perfect exam scores out of a field of 55,178 who passed their high school finals. Chhay Sopanhana, 17, from Hun Sen Sereypheap High School in Kandal province's Takhmao town, said she was delighted when she received news of her 99.99 percent exam result. "I did my best to receive this grade. It makes me happy and proud of myself and my whole family is also proud of me," she said. As the youngest daughter of a health official in Kandal province, Chhay Sopanhana is now on holiday and is preparing for university. "I am interested in studying medicine because my father is a doctor and my older sister is also approaching this field," she said, adding that she thought her outstanding grades might owe something to the fact she was "lucky to be born in a family that is encouraging me to pursue higher education". Despite obtaining the highest possible grades in all subjects at school, Chhay Sopanhana feels that her foreign-languages skills still need some work. "I stopped learning languages for one year because I was focusing on my school exams," she explained. "I need to learn more English and French to compete with other students when I enter university," she said, adding that English would be essential in the future were she to apply for overseas scholarships to pursue her education still further. Pech Lang, who was Chhay Sopanhana's math professor, told the Post that the A student had only used her own knowledge during the exam and did not cheat. "Sopanhana has been an outstanding student in Kandal province," she said. Heng Kothai, the only other student in the country to obtain grade-A marks, also cited a perceived weakness in foreign languages as a factor of concern. Despite admitting to a slight obsession with perfection, Heng Kothai says that what really got him his grades was his work ethic. He said he is confident this will stand him in good stead when he tackles improving his language skills. "My English is not as good as my general subjects at school, but if I study hard like I studied for my exam results, I will achieve success." The Siem Reap native received an overall exam score of 100 percent, and said he got an A in five subjects: maths, philosophy, biology, physics and chemistry. "I only got one C for English," he added ruefully. "I must study hard to improve my English results," he said, adding that he admires Phnom Penh students' access to finances and education. "I am not rich enough to pay for a part-time tutor," he said. Widespread cheating PHOTO SUPPLIED Kandal province’s Chhay Sopanhana says she will study medicine. The news of widespread bribery and cheating during the exams comes as no surprise to Heng Kothai. "Students are cheating all over the country," he said. "It is normal in Cambodia that students collect money for proctors. Government measures to crack down on such bad habits seem ineffective," he said. According to Heng Kothai, even noncheating students have to cough up cash for teachers. "It is a must to get all 25 students in the examination room to pay," he said. "I did not cheat so I did not pay, but proctors demanded all students to pay, so my friend spent money for me. Everyone knows I did not cheat." The student is now in Phnom Penh searching for an appropriate university to continue his education. "I want to pursue my degree in civil engineering [as] it is easy to find a good job in this field." Nhoek Sakun, deputy head of the Department of High Schools at the Siem Reap Provincial Education Department, said that he was happy to see a student in his province receive one of the only two perfect scores in the country. "The good result shows his true capacity: He is an outstanding student in Siem Reap," he said. However, Nhoek Sakun admitted that outstanding students with a sense of ethics were a rarity. "We cannot prevent all cheating. Cheating still exists." Chroeng Lim Sry, of the Ministry of Education, said he was pleased to see that the two students who received A's used only their knowledge to pass the exam. Source: Phnom Penh Post

CAMBODIA - CCSC Scholarship and a concern on high school exam quality

CAMBODIA(CCSC) - After few days interview at Catholic Church Student Center (CCSC) for its scholarship provided for poor and challenge students after their succeed in high school exam this year 2008, we found a very big concern to their grade and their ability.

The interview went through with 52 students among 96 students from all the places in Cambodia who registered to CCSC for 2008-2009 scholarship, from Friday 05 - Sunday 07 September. The scholarship proceed with 3 exams of Maths, Khmer / General Culture and English; and afterward conducting with an interview with 6 members of scholarship selection committee.

Comparing to the result of the exam at CCSC and the results got from high school exam this year, there are so different. Some students who got a very good score in Maths, Physics etc. in grade C or D have failed to CCSC exam but differently some students who get grade E have passed the exam instead.

With the interview, they have told that during the exam many corruption happened, "we needed to give money to the teachers who in charge in the room in order to be possible to read documents or watch someone else in the class, if not, we couldn't possible even do our work". Some students agreed that they got good score because of they had read other documents during the exam and gave money to the teachers.

But during the CCSC exam, we have also some students in grade B and C that had a very good score and they said they were possible to get this grade or could be better than this grade they had, "Of course, we have also read documents during the exam but not all subjects. For science subjects, we have no way to read better than use our knowledge to do them. If the exam fairs enough we could get better score than this." Most of the students had failed or feared with Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Khmer liturature, they had spent so much money in private class to study those subjects during their studying in high school.

After finished all interviews, other 2 conducted meeting made by the committee in order to select the succeed students. We had now choose 8 boys and 11 girls from different places/churches in Cambodia.

The students this year came from Battambang, Kampong Thom, Pursat, Phnom Penh, Kampot, Kampong Cham, Banteay Mean Chey and Prey Veng.

More students failing their exams (2008)

Despite rampant cheating, most students only manage the lowest possible passing score on their high school finals. Bribery allegations call into question whether grades reflect capacity FEWER students passed their high school exams this year compared with 2007, according to results released throughout the country Friday - despite widespread cheating. Some 70.7 percent of the 55,178 students who participated received passing marks, compared with 72.7 percent of students who passed last year. However, with allegations of widespread bribery in the classroom, many question whether the results reflect students' real capacity. VANDY RATTANA Students in Phnom Penh wait to get their results Friday. According to the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports statistics signed by Ke Nay Leang, general director of education, Phnom Penh students had the highest pass rate in the country at 84.9 percent, while Stung Treng students had the lowest at just 39.6 percent. Only two students in the country succeeded in getting grade A, the highest mark. Some 432 students got grade B, 3,289 got grade C, 14,769 got grade D and 36,706 students got grade E, according to statistics. Chroeng Lim Sry, director of the Department of High Schools at Ministry of Education, told the Post Sunday that the lowest scores received this year were in the subject of Khmer literature. "While not many students received good scores for Khmer writing, they usually did OK in other subjects." Chroeng Lim Sry acknowledged that cheating presented a problem during this year's exams. "We had over 79,000 students taking exams but only about 10,000 proctors to supervise," he said. "We couldn't prevent cheating entirely, but we will punish those teachers who allowed for irregularities by suspending them from being proctors again." Cheating, bribery rampant Rong Chhun, president of Cambodian Independent Teachers Association, said that the fact that the majority of students passed shows a lack of strict measures to curb bribery. "There were many irregularities during the exam period," he said. "The exam results sometimes do not reflect students' real capacity." Even though there is no concrete evidence of corruption, the fee for passing an exam can range anywhere from 7,000 riels in the provinces to 12,000 riels in Phnom Penh, Rong Chhun added. Chroeng Lim Sry said that while some students have paid bribes, he could guarantee that no formal cheat fees exist. He added that during exam day, two teachers were fired for taking money in exchange for test answers. Source: Phnom Penh Post

Exam cheats force review of teachers

Written by May Titthara

Thursday, 14 August 2008

Rampant cheating at high school exams this year has forced the government to investigate the widespread practice of students paying their teachers for test answers, education officials said Wednesday. "After the examination results are announced we will conduct a meeting with the chief of the education department and school directors around the country to find a way to stop teachers from taking money from their students and students from giving money to their teachers," said Chroeng Lim Sry, director of the high school department at the Ministry of Education. Two teachers were fired this year for taking money in exchange for test answers, but most students interviewed during this year's exams said it was almost expected that they would pay for better scores. Rong Chhun, head of the Cambodian Independent Teachers' Association, said that a large number of students would only pass their exams because they had cheated. "The Ministry of Education should not allow students to cheat during exams. If teachers' salaries are not increased and they continue to take money from the students to let them cheat, Cambodia will have no strong human resources to develop this country," Rong Chhun said. Sek Borisoth, director of the Anti-Corruption Program for Pact, agreed that widespread corruption in the examination room has interfered with the test scores and in the long-run is bound to lead to a lack of qualified graduates. "This will cause a serious problem in the society because students who have certificates will be unable to find jobs because the certificates will not be valued by employers," he said. "We want to increase teachers' wages to discourage them from taking bribes from the students in return for turning a blind eye to their cheating," Sek Borisoth said. "Some teachers...are forced to take money from their students because their wages are so low." Source: Phnom Penh Post

Re-called my friends in high school

It is amazing that friends in high school still keep in touch together...

Most of my friends already leave Cambodia to live or study in abroad, we just sometimes contact each other... It caused that we don't find a way to meet...

Now recently, one of my friend create a yahoogroup and re-call everyone to join, we start chatting much and sending message almost everyday... I really like that because it possible to continue sharing, reading each one's current life.
