Let's talk about the unfairness of the CIL exams. And by that, I don't mean we shouldn't have to prove some amount of computer competence before graduating. I simply mean those of us that are Mac users should be allowed to prove our competency on Macs.
Apple is gaining substantial ground in the technological world. More and more of my friends are jumping on the Macbook bandwagon, and yes, I will admit there is a learning curve moving from PC to Mac, but there is the same learning curve from Mac to PC. In other words, each CIL exam requires me to take the first ten minutes retraining my brain to think Windows, and PC. It's a good thing they are not timed.
I only have one more CIL and then I will never again have to prove my PC competency. (Wouldn't it be nice if that statement were true?)
About Me
- Angeline
- Los Angeles, CA
- I have always loved to write. I remember my sixth-grade teacher, Ms. Bigler, telling me I had a real knack for writing, but I never dreamed I could make money doing it. Furthermore, I never dared hope my passion would be my profession. Eleanor Roosevelt is shaking her head. But rest assured, Mrs. Roosevelt, I have heard your words and am a believer.
