My older daughter also scored low in English at the matriculation exam and didn't get into the university she wanted. Instead of hiding, we sat down together, enrolled her in courses, and after a year she tried again - now she works as a translator. Nothing collapses from one failure.
My niece also failed the English matriculation exam with about 55-60 points and did not enter the Sofia University. Instead of hiding, we sent her to private lessons with a teacher from Plovdiv, and the next year she passed with an 85. Now she studies at Plovdiv University. Nikolay is right - one failure is not the end.
Good on your niece for not giving up. My cousin also took private lessons in Burgas after a poor matriculation exam and entered the Medical School the following year. Now in his fourth year, he says that it was this failure that taught him to study seriously.
That's right, Nikolai. And my wife and I did not hide from people that our younger daughter got poor grades in English at the matriculation exam. We simply told her - this is a lesson, not an end. We enrolled her in private lessons with a teacher from Varna and the next year went better. Now he works in a hotel and gets along with foreigners.
Very precisely said, Nikolay. And I have seen how a bad EGE means nothing if the person then sits down and works. My sister-in-law went the same way – she failed the first time, enrolled in intensive courses in Burgas and now translates documents in a company. I'm glad your daughter made it.
I'm glad for your sister-in-law, Athanas, she seems to have taken matters into her own hands. My niece also failed the first time, then she studied four hours a day for a whole year and now she is studying in Plovdiv. I wonder what courses your daughter-in-law took in Burgas?
Yes, Atanas, that's right - the important thing is not to give up afterwards. My daughter also got through several months of intensive reading at home without expecting a miracle. And what company does your daughter-in-law translate for now, if it's not a secret?
Very nice example, Athanas. My cousin also failed the first time, then worked as a waitress for two years and studied at night - now she is in administration and doing well. And did your daughter-in-law look for the courses in Burgas on her own or did someone recommend her?
I'm happy for your niece Daniella, four hours a day is serious work. My daughter-in-law took two intensive English courses in Burgas - one was with a native speaker, and the second was for matriculation preparation. What do you think, would the online course have done the same job or is it better live?
Yes, it's good that she didn't give up. My niece also got a low in math, then she drove the bus with me for a year and studied in shifts - now she's in accounting. And what exactly did your daughter-in-law choose in Burgas, administration or something else?
I agree, Nikolay, giving up is the worst. My older daughter also read 3-4 hours a day at home after the first setback and finally got in. And what company does your daughter-in-law translate for, if it's not a secret?
