AND WE HAVE A WINNER....

The Prize Draw has now taken place, and three lucky candidates can look forward to a bit of gadget-fun over the coming days

Three names were drawn at random from all the registered and activated accounts. The Wii plus Brain Game goes to Matthew Jamieson from Motherwell, while DS Lites go to Lydia Nellis from Rothesay and Alistair Rose from Aberdeen. Well done to all of them!

The real prizes, of course, are announced on the 5th August when the exam results come out. Looking around the various sites, I gather things are getting pretty tense out there! Well, I do hope you've all done as well as you deserve to. More importantly, I do hope the waiting hasn't ruined the summer magic of midges, sunburn, windburn, mud-up-to-your-oxter-rock-festivals, boredom and Salmonellaburgers.

BIG AND IMPORTANT NEWS!

The Big News is for everyone who registers to receive their exam results by text or e-mail with MySQA. Not only will you be able to avoid the wait for the postie, you could also be one of three lucky winners of a fantastic Nintendo video game!

That’s right, everyone who registers will have the chance to win a Nintendo Wii with Big Brain Academy game, or one of two Nintendo DS Lites with Brain Training game – including those who have already registered.

It’s just one more good reason to make sure you do.

The Important News is for anyone who hasn’t registered yet.

In order for us to process your application and get your results ready for sending to you by text or e-mail on 5th August, registrations will close 5pm on Thursday 17th July. AND YOU MUST HAVE ACTIVATED YOUR ACCOUNT BY 5PM ON THE 25TH. So if you haven’t registered yet, don’t put it off.

And if you know someone who is planning on registering, but hasn’t done so yet, make sure they know the deadline.

Talk to you soon.

WHAT IS THE POINT OF IT ALL?

Now the Standard Grades are well under way, and the Highers are looming, I thought it might be a good idea to ask why we’re all bothering at all?

Why are we sacrificing the best days of summer to sit inside and study some complex Mathematical formula we’ll likely never need again? Why are we spending our evenings with Shakespeare instead of the boyfriend?

I mean, look at Sir Alan Sugar or Sir Richard Branson – they’ve done okay without qualifications.

Well, the truth is qualifications in themselves aren’t that important. By which I mean, if you don’t know a word of Spanish having a piece of paper saying you’re fluent will be as much use as a plastic sword in a bullfight.

But if you have mastered a subject, then having the proof is very useful. It lets colleges and universities decide who’s up for the next stage. It lets employers decide who’s going to help them retire earlier. And it gives you bragging rights over your less gifted friends.

Going back to the two Sirs, they didn’t make squillions by skiving off whenever the sun came out. They may not have achieved great academic heights, they’re both smart because they never stop learning. And they work hard.

Think of studying like going to the gym – put in the sweat and you’ll feel better (and look better) at the end of it.

And just like going to the gym, it’s also useful to vary the exercise you do. So you may not think the Pythagoras theorem is going to be of much use in your chosen career, but just understanding it and remembering it is a good thing to do for its own sake.

Learning gets you in shape for life. And it gets you in shape for work. Which is where SQA qualifications come in. We’re not just here for the nasty things, like Standard grades and Highers. We’re here for good, with qualifications you can take whether you’re 19 or 90. So you can learn to do a job, do a better job, get a better job or live a better life.

Think of us as one huge big Sudoku book, full of puzzles to keep your brain in shape.

And once it’s in shape, you can look at all your qualifications together on MySQA. From Autumn 2008, all your qualifications from previous years, as well as any future SQA qualifications such as SVQs or HNCs and HNDs will join your results from this year’s exams on your page. This is just the start.
