    BBC News - Liberia students all fail university admission exam

    Gosh.

    I wonder where they'll try next.



    We'll probly give them direct entry into the 3rd year, judging by previous offers.

    I like the sound of this guy.

    University spokesman Momodu Getaweh told Focus on Africa that the university stood by its decision, and it would not be swayed by "emotion".

    "In English, the mechanics of the language, they didn't know anything about it. So the government has to do something," he said.

    "The war has ended 10 years ago now. We have to put that behind us and become realistic."
    I wonder if it's his plan B option too. 25k times £16 exam fee. £400k and no pesky students to educate - awww, sorry kids, try again next year yeah? I'll just be over here on this yacht.

          You mean Liberia has exams that can be ' failed'? How very backward; shouldn't it be called 'deferred success'? I don't see how they can ever hope to rebuild the country after the war if they actually demand competence from students.
