What are the brevet test in Lebanon?

Answer 1

I never heard about this exam, thanks to Kate and samerdib, and good luck samer.

Answer 2

Just to add: the exams are extremely difficult!!! A grade 12 brevet exam would compare to a University Exam in the West. Not kidding. The kids study night and day for months. It is their future after all. Cheers!

the brevet test this year starts next week (on 7th July) and will last till 10th July  ( 4 days)

Answer 6

THE SOURCE OF ALL EVIL!!

   the destroyer of life

                                                              

it's just designed to make the life of 14 year olds overly stressed and ruin their summer vacation ...

so that while we, brevet students, are indoor in our windowless tower... studying... melting our brains in the rotting july sun.... kids are down on the streets.. screaming, yelling , and having a blast...

           so in brief it's pure torture!

Those who survive brevet can survive anything!

(i handled the emotional part.. as other people took care of the technical one)

i mean NINE SUBJECTS??

i have brevet next week as well............ * pfff *

Answer 7

Official examinations in the following areas: Math, English, Arabic, chemistry, bio, physics, civics, history, geography. They are common among all 9th graders who want to hold a lebanese certificate & get elevated to grade 10 or else they will either attend a technical school or continue high school (Freshman) with no Lebanese (BAC) which comes at grade 12 (also official examination for those who want to hold a lebanese certificate when they go to college) .....

If you have the Brevet & BAC then u can work at any official governmental Lebanese institution.
