The two difference between education before and education now is the employment and the unemployment rate.
In those days, if you graduate from school, there was every tendency that a job is already waiting for you immediately after graduation, you don't need to write plenty applications for you to be employed, infact, I heard job was giving with a car to drive.
But now, hardly will you see such happen, I don't know if it's because education is now very common and everyone is able to get it now, or it's because the country is getting worse everyday. I just know that things weren't like this in those days, atleast certificate was valued, the four or five years spent in school didn't always go in vein, but now it seems the reverse is the case, everything is just turning upside down, and with the way things are even going, it will only get worse if God did not intervene.
the thing is that standards of education has spoilt and government is not longer concentrating on education since they noticed that almost all the children is making efforts to be educated both morally and otherwise, what collapses the system of education is corruption by politicians and rich people, sometimes people who is not qualified to be in high school and universities is now pushed into high school and university through bribery and corruption, so that's what makes education to be affected, not only unemployed and employed that damages the system of education in our country
