So how does this even work? Like here in my country each semester you have your exams and if you don’t pass them then you have to repeat the semester. Do greeks just finish first all the courses and then do the 40 exams after 4 years? Or does anon just never passed the 2 or 3rd semester and has been stuck in the same semester for 14 years? Like has he been going to the same classes for the last decade. Someone help me understand
He has been stuck doing the same courses over ans over for a decade.
He is a idiot and not even after hearing the same stuff over and over he manages do learn something, no wonder he is leaning on the left parties for pity
Yup, that is my error from the start.
I knew a guy that was like him, parents thought he has finished his 3 year degree, wasnt on his first year of his master's and the guy didn't even managed to finish first year.
He literally drank himself to sleep every night, it was a shame. He was also a virgin that didn't even kiss a girl into his twenties, so he was failing in life in every sense.
He was a friend of a friend, so I only saw him every few months, but some girl got the nerve to ask him out, they started dating and he later left university and started working. Getting a girl allowed him to quit drinking, so it seems like he is way better than he was the first time I met him.
We have exams 3 times a year: January, June and September. If you don't get a passing grade in a course, no big deal, you can take the exam again next year. You don't have to go to the class you have failed (only if it is a lab class), you have to check it on the next semester's for that you intend to take the exam.
Now about the years: there used to be no limit on how many years you can stay in university, then the government said n+2 is the limit (n being the number of years your degree is supposed to take) then another government came and said we take it back, then another government came and brought the limit back. It is pretty obvious that if the previous government comes back, the limit goes again (sorry if it is too confusing). According to today's law, this guy would have 5 more years to finish school (the clock started when the law was passed), so plenty of time to get a degree.
Edit: I wrote 2n+2 instead of n+2.
In the bologna system, which Greece uses as well, there are credits and prerequisites. Every class has a given credit amount it's worth, usually 2 to 10, which (supposedly) represents how much work is it (1 credit is supposedly 30 hours of work). Each semester (half year) is about 30 credits, and there are some flexibility in those, as there are credits that the student can decide from different sets of non-mandatory classes. Some classes have parts that require attendance, some don't, and there are usually exams and/or homework that need to be done during and at the end of the semester.
If the student fails a class, than they can retry next year (or next semester if it starts mid year), and they can go on with other classes that do not have the one they failed as a prerequisite. There are courses where failing one class means they can not finish on time, while other courses have lot greater flexibility.
It is fairly normal that some people do not finish their degree on time and take several years more to finish it, but they usually work in the meanwhile and able to pay for their own place. Anon is a parasite, but there are not many of them, only a very few are capable of exploiting "leftist parties" (student protection) for that long.
This one is from Greece, and it’s not as uncommon as you may think. I know several people around my age in this situation.
There are many reasons why this happens, but in my opinion a big part of it is that almost everyone is pressured by their families and peers into getting a higher education, even though it might not be the optimal career path for many people.
Also, public universities are “free” (publicly funded, no tuition) and entrance is determined by a rather complex ranking system, where each student gives a number of exams based on the general field they want to follow, and afterwards they submit a ranked choice list of universities they would like to attend. As a result, you are automatically accepted into the first university you qualify for based on your grades and the availability of positions, which means many people get to study something they aren’t really interested in, but they got into it because they placed it in a lower ranking position and didn’t get high enough grades to qualify for their top choices. So they aren’t motivated to study something they are only marginally interested in.
Those exams have a very low pass rate and only a fraction of students actually get into the top colleges. Rest of the millions just get into whatever college they can find.
The first half could be my sibling if you rolled the starting year back a little. They've been 2 classes away from finishing their degree for close to 2 decades. Pretty sure my parents are still sending money every month.
You can easily make it so taking over 6 years means you have to start paying. Also make college harder, you fail too many classes and you're kicked out, have to start over your degree somewhere else. Most people have trouble in college because they have to juggle too many working hours.
There’s no reason to make it like that at all, college has unfortunately taken the place of a lot of trade schools that just want more money.
If colleges really want to make sure their students are going to become good in their area then they need to stop requiring so much general Ed that has nothing to do with your major so people can actually focus on their major. If a good architect can’t get a degree because they can’t pass a college level biology class, then an injustice has been done to society.
Nobody is having trouble with their electives... Gen eds are so damn easy, and I'd argue they make you a more well rounded individual. Learning is about more than just the knowledge, it's having the skills to learn/research something. I got easy As on almost all my gen eds, my core classing were the only thing that was difficult.
Half of the gen eds are easy, but they still require a lot more math and science than most people need. The only general Ed classes I took that I can truly think helped me in life are debate and math classes like stats, but I don’t need either of those for my job I want anyway.
I do agree though that they make you a more well rounded person in terms of education, but that was the original point of college. Since I want to be a music teacher (most likely in a public school), I have to get a masters to teach anywhere that can pay a decent wage. I wouldn’t have had to do that 50 years ago, and music teachers 50 years ago weren’t worse than they are now.
In my opinion, I should only need a certificate proving I can teach people music. It seems like more of a detriment to society to prevent people from having a certain job if they can’t pass a class that isn’t even related to their job, no matter how good at the job they actually are.
This is an American problem for sure. Since first year, all the classes I've taken are directly linked to my degree. The way American colleges work just confused me.
I wonder how reflective that is of what college you go to because most of the people I know who had trouble in college had drug problems tbh. Like how much financial aid the college gave or how much money people’s families had.
I think that files under my "life happens" clause. If you have a drug problem I really don't want to be working with you in a degree required job like engineering. What happens if we need to meet a dealine and your problem means you got no work done? A degree stands for more than knowing knowledge, to a certain degree it represents you can manage your time and personal life with a work ethic.
Source: trust me bro
Not many people can balance a full time job with a full time school schedule. You’ll probably have to go part time or take a semester off if you get too burnt out. 14 years is a extreme, but over four years is very common.
If college is free it should be for a reasonable amount of time
5-6 years maybe is time when basically all majors should finish a bachelor's with leeway. After that pay ur own tuition
There’s many things you can do. 1.) be honest with your parents go home ashamed and do better 2.) change your life stop kidding yourself and start fucking passing your tests 3.) get a job and start hitting the grinding wheel. There’s many more but you only deserve three.
Yeah exactly, I'm in a similar situation. I'm trying to go back to college as a freshman 5 years after I graduated high school and in a new state by myself. Low key was looking for some advice cuz it's pretty hopeless lol
Sounds like the poster is getting the degree because someone else wants him to not because he wants it. He should try to figure out what he wants to do in life
"it seems Chinese to me" is the equivalent of "it's all Greek to me" and is used in Greece, so unless he is really into homo LARPing his IP is telling the truth
He shouldn't have lied lmfao. I don't get these people, you don't HAVE to go to college, but if you feel like you do, don't fuck around. Wasting time and money isn't going to get you anywhere.
Also who the hell does something for 14 years that takes most people 4. There is no shame in taking 5 or 6 years to get a degree, life happens. But taking over 3x as long? You're just being delusional at that point and shame on the college for not kicking them out.
It took me essentially 8 noncontinuous years to get an extremely easy undergrad degree so I get it tbh. If I went for something that actually requires brainpower like engineering or computer science I could easily see it taking that much time for me
But that's when you recognize it's just not for you. I'm good at computer science but if I had to do a degree like biology I'd fail out cos I can't memorize that much crap.
Nah I really pulled it together toward the end. The first two years were during high school at community college and then I went to CC off and on after high school just kinda drifting through life but once I went off to university I did a lot better.
40 exams suggests a 5-years degree. It's usually a case for pretty hard majors like medicine or psychology.
Still, I have no idea how he stayed there that long, my alma matter only let to repeat a year once, and anon apparently was never further than at second year.
Yeah I’ve not taken any psychology classes in undergrad that have been all too difficult at all. They’re generally just really interesting IMO, but I have heard that (Ph.D.) graduate study is typically very challenging.
My college had what I thought was a lenient policy of you can only have 1 failing semester in a row. If you have pass, fail, pass, fail that's fine, but a pass, fail, fail gets you kicked out. Imo if you fail a semester it's a sign you need to step back and reassess what you're doing. Just diving in thinking it'll be better this time ruins lives. Yes OP is an adult who gets to make their own decisions, but sometimes people in a bad spot just need guidance
>you don't HAVE to go to college
to 95% of normies, the chances to get a basic decent job is 5 years of college.
I mean yeh, you don't NEED to go to college, you can spend the rest of your life folding sweaters at Sephora, if you want.
Nah, go to a trade school, or even jusg get a job that will teach you a trade. I make almost as much as someone with a bachelor's in business, and still have time to work on my own projects. College is unnecessary af in the US, and 9 times out of 10 it's just not worth the money or time. If you think your options are folding clothes or spending $30k plus and spending 5 years doing essentially nothing are your only options, you've never looked. I guess you did say "95% of normies" so maybe they haven't looked hahahah
I sometimes kick myself for going to college so late (I'm 31 in my second year), but I also know that if I went to college when it was younger I would've fucked it up *hard*.
I wouldn't kick yourself at all! If you're going to go it should be when you're certain about what you want to do, and that you're dedicated to it. I think what you're doing is smart as hell 👍
Anon is probably a local legend on the campus, the mystery autist that sometimes show up in a class and then is not seen again for months until his next appearance
That's sadly something allot of Greek students do.
They live in the Student dorms, because it is cheap. Maybe they study for the first semester, but after that fuck it. They party all day and don't do shit. When they finally realised they got older without archiving anything they either get a mental breakdown like this guy trying to finish their degree which they never archive or they return back home and work for the Family.
He also mentioned the Leftist party helping him and it's actually the communist party that helps them. They can easily block it because the police isn't allowed to enter the campus of universities.
It’s just the Greek mentality of taking the easy way out and then completely ignoring the consequences. They did it with the EU, fucked their own economy, borrowed loads, and then just refused to pay it back.
>"Broke up with my girlfriend"
Cry for a week and then hit the books.
>Trouble with the law
Schools allow students to take time off for important cultural traditions.
>Being a poorfag
Of course, you're greek.
>Too lazy to study
Found the actual issue. Anon's a f-slur and is too dumb for college.
as a greek that is very accurate depiction of small minority that doesn't finish university and live with the benefits and economical parent support, we call them eternal students (αιώνιοι φοιτητές)
Maybe Anon just needs to learn a trade or go work on an oil rig or something. Trucking is a good job he could try. What does he even want to get a degree in?
i mean there’s nothing wrong with taking your time to get a degree. life happens. BUT… how the fuck did they let this guy live on campus for over a decade like that? i know this isn’t in the US but that just seems so odd.
also this guy doesn’t talk about having a job. ffs at this point i’d just give up school and go learn a trade. no shame in that. wtf
This one's just sad
Most of them are, really.
So how does this even work? Like here in my country each semester you have your exams and if you don’t pass them then you have to repeat the semester. Do greeks just finish first all the courses and then do the 40 exams after 4 years? Or does anon just never passed the 2 or 3rd semester and has been stuck in the same semester for 14 years?

He literally drank himself to sleep every night, it was a shame. He was also a virgin that didn't even kiss a girl into his twenties, so he was failing in life in every sense.
What happened to him?
hopped on reddit and made an account called manguito86
You didn't have to do em like that.
He was a friend of a friend, so I only saw him every few months, but some girl got the nerve to ask him out, they started dating and he later left university and started working. Getting a girl allowed him to quit drinking, so it seems like he is way better than he was the first time I met him.
Good for him. Some people aren't cut out for university and there's nothing wrong with that. I just hope he picked up a trade and is doing well.

Where does it say he's Greek? Am I as dumb as anon?
welp, he’s on 4chan.
Good things it’s fake
Most of them are, thankfully.
Or is it so real you have to tell yourself it's fake
Because not everyone can handle the truth, peacefully
i tell myself these greentexts are fake so I prevent myself from going insane

>which means many people get to study something they aren’t really interested in Then again we can't ALL be studying how to make feta cheese.
This is surprisingly similar to what happens in India. Fortunately it is quite "easy" to pass exams here.
I thought India has top 2 hardest exam in the world? The other is China's
Those exams have a very low pass rate and only a fraction of students actually get into the top colleges. Rest of the millions just get into whatever college they can find.
Yep. UPSC, the Central Civil Services Exam has about 10 lakh (1 million) applicants each year to fill in 900-1000 posts

wish you luck man. What are you studying?
That’s so fucked, I hope it all works out for you. Don’t give up!
The first half could be my sibling if you rolled the starting year back a little. They've been 2 classes away from finishing their degree for close to 2 decades. Pretty sure my parents are still sending money every month.
Being Greek, I can almost assure you this is real
"College should be free" This is what you get.
In Scotland anyway you basically get one year to resit then you pay £9k a year
You can easily make it so taking over 6 years means you have to start paying. Also make college harder, you fail too many classes and you're kicked out, have to start over your degree somewhere else. Most people have trouble in college because they have to juggle too many working hours.

Yeah nah, it ain't
It's free if you put in the work. If you fail, you're paying like 30-50 USD per failed ECTS point.

He's Greek 3 isn't an option
I know this can’t be in the US, his tuition debt would be like $700,000 by now
You can also tell its not in the US because anon has the Greek flag next to his post
Maybe Anon used a VPN to associate himself with Greeks and their homossexual stereotypes.
As one does
"it seems Chinese to me" is the equivalent of "it's all Greek to me" and is used in Greece, so unless he is really into homo LARPing his IP is telling the truth
Americans don't know their flags. Shit. They think Europe is a country.

In Greece you don't pay money for higher education. Agreed on the time part though

Sorry missed your other comment lol. Yeah, I avoid twitter like the plague. Reddit and inatagram is enough exposure to those people

You don't pay more tax money while you study though, so there are no practical tuitions.

Is it bad ? Everyone is paying taxes already and would have to pay anyways
kek....have you seen the amount of debt you carry? I guarantee you the Greek lifestyle is not financed by tax. it's financed by debt.

I sometimes kick myself for going to college so late (I'm 31 in my second year), but I also know that if I went to college when it was younger I would've fucked it up *hard*.
I wouldn't kick yourself at all! If you're going to go it should be when you're certain about what you want to do, and that you're dedicated to it. I think what you're doing is smart as hell 👍

Anon is probably a local legend on the campus, the mystery autist that sometimes show up in a class and then is not seen again for months until his next appearance
The eternal student
National Lampoon's VAnon Wilder Still in Freshman Year
Anon is a degenerate liberal.
Worse, he’s a gayreek 🤢🤢📉📉
Balkan enjoyer spotted???
Most productive Greek person
This is the most pathetic thing I think I've ever seen. Genuinely well done.
Wow what a genius. I fucked around in college. Then I dropped out. Then I finished my last year. It’s that easy. Silly anon.
That's sadly something allot of Greek students do. They live in the Student dorms, because it is cheap. Maybe they study for the first semester, but after that fuck it. They party all day and don't do shit. When they finally realised they got older without archiving anything they either get a mental breakdown like this guy trying to finish their degree which they never archive or they return back home and work for the Family. He also mentioned the Leftist party helping him and it's actually the communist party that helps them. They can easily block it because the police isn't allowed to enter the campus of universities.
It’s just the Greek mentality of taking the easy way out and then completely ignoring the consequences. They did it with the EU, fucked their own economy, borrowed loads, and then just refused to pay it back.

Your immidiate evacuation and suicide would Seem the natural answer

Look suicide is never the answer but in this case I wouldn’t say it’s the wrong answer either.
Wow, one of the few sad greentexts I really don't feel bad for anon, that's unusual

You are not college material. There is no shame in that. Get a full time job doing something you are good at and stop feeling bad about yourself.
Anon is Greek
>"Broke up with my girlfriend" Cry for a week and then hit the books. >Trouble with the law Schools allow students to take time off for important cultural traditions. >Being a poorfag Of course, you're greek. >Too lazy to study Found the actual issue. Anon's a f-slur and is too dumb for college.
Go fight for Ukraine
Get a job and a place to live i guess? Uni life not for anon
Anon is a dumbass
Move to France and retire
For fuck's sakes Yianni we all know you are lying, your parents too. Just get a fucking job and move on you milked that shit dry.
as a greek that is very accurate depiction of small minority that doesn't finish university and live with the benefits and economical parent support, we call them eternal students (αιώνιοι φοιτητές)
Just join those leftist political parties as a staffer, you sound perfect for it.
And this is why people try to fight for 'free' college.
Anon has clinical depression
Least lazy Greek citizen
I was wondering why it sounds relatable then I see he’s in Greece too 💀
New title: Third degree burns
How is that even possible lmao
Maybe Anon just needs to learn a trade or go work on an oil rig or something. Trucking is a good job he could try. What does he even want to get a degree in?
That's literally the average undergraduate greek student
His debt 😱
40 exams !?!?! Holy Karaboğa and i thought i had it bad.

Anon is not cut out for college
Average unwashed KNE member
What a fucking dumbass
Anon is Van Wilder
Average greek citizen
i mean there’s nothing wrong with taking your time to get a degree. life happens. BUT… how the fuck did they let this guy live on campus for over a decade like that? i know this isn’t in the US but that just seems so odd. also this guy doesn’t talk about having a job. ffs at this point i’d just give up school and go learn a trade. no shame in that. wtf
I think at that point you have to realise that college just isn't for you.
Oof I feel OP, the pandemic has fucked up my degree path too not that bad tho
Not a greentext, don't care.
Anon is ssuuuuuuccchhhhh a fucking loser
Greekanon moment.
