English is fun.
It can be fun if you have a good teacher. But BOSTES with their rationale goes about it the wrong way. 3 essays in 2 hours? Yeah right. Creative writing? Please, you can't just write on the spot, English is a memorising and speed writing test.

But what I despise is the BS and volatile marking because by nature, English is subjective.

I agree that the way they structure the English course is faulty. It pretty much just encourages rote learning.
