A take on the BAC L 2013
"I had always thought the BAC would be a terrible ordeal, turns out, it wasn't that bad ! I came to realize that all I had
done during this last year of highschool had been way more difficult than the last exam itself ..Now maybe this is just me ,but I definitely felt let down especially bye the language tests ... It
was as if all the work I had put into my school years had gone to waste . The only tests I thought lived up to my expectations were the history and philosophy ones.
I didn't feel much when I saw I had managed to graduate with honors, what made me proud was that the people around me were
proud, and congratulated me , even strangers on the streets. I was sort of expecting to get a "mention TB", I however could have never expected the reactions of the ones I love and that's the
only reason I think it can mean something ,nowadays ,to have our BAC, that ,and maybe the fact it still signifies the end of our childhood and the beginning of new responsibilities, new decisions
, which can affect the rest of our lives.
I'm glad that highschool is over and excited to start studying Law in the Fall, and if there is
something I'll be sure to remember from this experience, it's that none of what you do really matters until you've found a reason to keep going ,to keep doing it and that the BAC is ,in the end,
just a sheet of paper with an official signature on it that says" I've been to school and yes I did pay attention in class" .
