Arabic, Religion and National education (civics) when you are allowed to take igcse geography well its accepted by universities in egypt so why not take that instead of social studies or civics

also what is even the point of civics (like the stuff that you take in civics in egypt) if you are an igcse student too

    but the thing is with civics in egypt is that I don’t like the real reason about why you should know about egyptian stuff like I don’t think that will be that useful for me in the future so yeah whats the point of egyptian civics basically

      It’s usually where you learn how your government and institutions work, how elections and voting works, how to pay taxes, etc.

      While these things seem very boring when you’re young some of them are quite important later on.

      You have to have a shared cultural identity to be Egyptian

      It’s not useful, hell it’ll be mostly half-truths and plenty of outright lies, but it’s a way to build cultural identity in a top down stort of way

          I get the feeling you’re planning to leave Egypt as soon as possible after school?

          When immigrating to another country, you’re expected to learn the same details for that country, on your own time. Knowing the Egyptian version will provide a baseline making it easier to learn the material for the place you’re moving to.
