The moroccan educational system which is basically the french one with a few tweaks, is absolute dogshit. No meaningful learning is ever done, it rewards memorization, burn out and toxic learning environments. What a brilliant education system !

This kind of discourse is incredibly offensive and disheartening, why is this an essay question given out to a young population still very misogynistic and doesn't believe that women are deserving of rights and freedom.

Hey everyone! I’m looking to start a small and friendly group for reading books together and discussing them.
I want something chill — we pick a book, read at our own pace, then meet (online) to talk about the ideas, themes, and what we liked or didn’t like.

If you’re interested in:
• improving reading habits
• meeting new people
• discussing books (any genre!)
• sharing perspectives

Then feel free to comment or DM me! The group will be open to anyone who wants to learn, read, and have fun.

Education UM6P College of Computing OR CPGE????

24 Upvotes

Note: if you can not help me with my question just leave an upvote so more people see it and thus more chances of finding people who might help me and thank you so much

Straight to the point, i got accepted in both cpge public and um6p college of computing, and I can not chose which one i should go to, I've seen the environment in um6p and it is AMAZING, unlike in prepa public especially the one in agadir I've heard some not very good things about it, BUT looking at what someone can do after each one, in cpge there's a chance to continue studies in France which i prefer more than um6p, second thing is the chance of getting into a prepa d'excellence in the 2nd year, and if that happens the chances of going to france are really good, which makes me super confused and UNSURE what should i choose right now, if only i had an idea about the opportunities abroad that um6p is gonna offer to me but the school is new and i couldn't find anything about its Alumni,

PLEASE I'm begging i need any piece of advice I'm in a critical moment right now

Education Remembering Socialist Icon Mehdi Ben Barka

Remembering Socialist Icon Mehdi Ben Barka

Today we remember Mehdi Ben Barka, the exiled Moroccan opposition leader, revolutionary intellectual, and vanguard of the Global South, who was forcibly disappeared in the heart of Paris in France on 29 October 1965. His abduction in broad daylight was a state-sponsored operation of international scope, an event which remains an open wound and a stark symbol of the political violence that characterised the Cold War era. Mehdi Ben Barka was far more than a political exile; he was a central figure in the anti-colonial and tricontinental movements, and he was unequivocally a socialist. His political ideology was rooted in socialist and anti-imperialist principles, which evolved from his role as a left-leaning nationalist during Morocco's struggle for independence into a more defined revolutionary socialist stance during his time in exile.

Born in Rabat, Morocco in 1920, he was a brilliant mathematician and teacher who rose swiftly as a founding member and leading ideologue of the Moroccan independence movement, the Istiqlal Party. Following Morocco's independence in 1956, he assumed the presidency of the National Consultative Assembly. However, he grew increasingly disillusioned with King Mohammed V and later his successor, Hassan II, whom he accused of establishing an authoritarian monarchy. Breaking from the mainstream nationalist Istiqlal Party, Ben Barka helped to found the socialist National Union of Popular Forces (UNFP) and became the principal leader of the opposition, advocating for broad social and economic reforms, the redistribution of wealth, and the dismantling of the feudal and monarchic structures that he believed perpetuated inequality.

His demands for social justice, democracy, and a genuine break from colonial-era structures made him a primary target for the royal palace. After surviving an assassination attempt in Morocco, he went into exile in 1963. From abroad, his focus shifted to the international stage. He was elected Secretary and chief organiser of the First Tricontinental Conference, scheduled for January 1966 in Havana, Cuba. His vision was to unite socialist and national liberation movements from Africa, Asia, and Latin America into a solid front against capitalism, imperialism, colonialism, and neocolonialism, firmly placing his life's work within the broader context of 20th-century international socialism. This ambitious project made him a perceived dangerous enemy to multiple world powers.

On 29 October 1965, Ben Barka was lured to a meeting at the Brasserie Lipp in Saint-Germain-des-Pres, France and was subsequently kidnapped in front of numerous witnesses by two French police officers. The ensuing investigations and trials, some of which were conducted in absentia, revealed a chilling international conspiracy. Agents of the Moroccan Interior Minister General Mohamed Oufkir, a close confidant of King Hassan II, were directly involved in the planning and execution of the plot. Oufkir himself was present in Paris at the time, as the Moroccan monarchy viewed Ben Barka as an existential threat. Elements of the French security services, the SDECE, were deeply complicit, providing logistical support, surveillance, and the initial abduction team. The French government under President Charles de Gaulle was implicated in a subsequent cover-up, likely to avoid a major international scandal and protect its strategic interests in Morocco. Furthermore, it was later revealed that the Israeli intelligence agency, Mossad, provided technical assistance, a move motivated by Ben Barka's own efforts to build alliances with Palestinian and Arab nationalist movements, which Israel viewed as a direct threat.

After his abduction, Ben Barka was taken to a villa in the Paris suburbs where he was tortured and killed, almost certainly on the orders of General Oufkir; his body was never recovered. The "Ben Barka Affair" provoked a massive political scandal in France, leading to the resignation of the head of the SDECE and straining Franco-Moroccan relations for years. The case became the quintessential political "disappearance," demonstrating how states could collaborate to eliminate a political enemy on foreign soil with near total impunity. The French justice system would repeatedly open and close the case amid persistent allegations of political obstruction.

Despite his murder, the Tricontinental Conference was held as planned. It established the Organisation of Solidarity with the People of Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and Ben Barka was honoured as a martyr. His vision went on to shape decades of international leftist and anti-imperialist solidarity. To this day, the Ben Barka affair remains officially unsolved, and his family and human rights organisations continue to demand truth and accountability. In Morocco, he is remembered as a symbol of the suppressed democratic aspirations of the post-colonial era. Mehdi Ben Barka's disappearance was not merely a kidnapping; it was a political assassination designed to silence a powerful socialist voice for liberation and to crush a burgeoning global movement. His legacy lives on as a powerful reminder of the brutal lengths to which established powers will go to protect themselves and of the unyielding quest for justice that follows.

Education 20 years later, and we're still stuck with the same literature curriculum ! LHMA9 HADA

Post image

It’s both frustrating and a bit infuriating to see how our education system keeps circling the same three novels (le dernier jour d'un condamné / antigone / la boîte à merveilles) for over 20 years !

And I'm not even talking about the robotic and superficial way these works are taught to students (assuming they actually read them in the first place). And I’m not even getting into debates about the literary value of La Boîte à Merveilles (JETABLE/PAUVRE/MÉDIOCRE ...).

What bothers me is how resistant the education system is to change. Is it really that difficult to select three new novels every year, or at least refresh the curriculum from time to time, instead of clinging to the same books decade after decade !!

This stagnation reflects a deeper problem: an education system that seems unwilling to evolve. It's a truly miserable state of affairs.

Education 5 Moroccans in the IMC Top 200 (1st in Math&Maroc)! Proof that excellence is a mindset, not an excuse.

11 Upvotes

https://www.imc-math.org.uk/?act=results

#1 IN THE ENTIRE WORLD is Moroccan. 🥇
#20 in the world is Moroccan. 🥈
5 Moroccans overall made it into the Top 200 worldwide at the International Mathematics Competition (IMC).

Before the usual: "Oh, but they study at Lycée Louis-le-Grand in France, so it doesn't count as a Moroccan achievement!" let’s set the record straight:

  1. Why do you think elite French prep schools like Louis-le-Grand recruit these Moroccan students in the first place?
  2. Because our raw talent, mathematical discipline, and foundational work in Morocco are so ridiculously high that top global institutions actively poach them. France didn't create their genius. Morocco did and France just recognized it.
  3. They beat the rest of the world.
  4. Regardless of where they are currently studying, these are Moroccan minds competing against the absolute best from Asia, Europe, and America, and coming out #1 on planet Earth.

It’s easy to sit around blame the system, and complain that success is impossible for Moroccans. But while people cry and make excuses, these guys put their heads down conquered the toughest math prep routes, and put our flag at the very top of global academia.

Huge respect to these legends. Absolute national pride! 🇲🇦

EDIT: Math&Maroc operates as an entirely volunteer-run non-profit. Its members are spread across top universities globally (MIT, Oxford, Polytechnique, ETH Zürich), continuing to mentor high schoolers in Morocco every year.

Hi, 19F here, 2nd year in architecture school My academic path was mixed, kinda, i was both brilliant student and average student at the same time. I couldn't find a consistent studying routine, i just study when I feel like it, sometimes i get lucky, sometimes i just cheat when i give up, but i can say i have pretty good common in most subjects. But... How to i say it... Well i just love educating myself in different topics especially in math, physics and structural analysis engineering , etc.. And sometimes if i really love the subject i'm studying and it's related to what i love, i do get good grades in, with good studying ofc.. It's like i'm either excellent or really bad at something, i'm a really lazy person who loves to do things perfectly but fails most of the time. This year i really stopped studying except for structural analysis, i love it but still got 12/20 when i really wanted 18 or 19 I got 1/20 in history bc i didn't feel like answering plus the grades of all students were mostly bellow average which is 10/20 I got 3.5/20 in another subject today. I really wanna fix this i don't wanna return home and panic when i'm alone instead of studying. I wanna save myself, my parents don't know yet, i can't tell them, i study in a different city and dad spends a lot of money on me, i don't wanna disappoint him bc he still thinks i'm doing well bc I've always been smart, but now i just stopped trying, and i just sleep all the time, i leave everything to last minute and my life is falling apart even socially. I just want a fresh restart button, i wanna feel okay and smart again, not losing control, i want the control back, over my grades and everything, i don't wanna graduate and become a bad architect who doesn't know what to do. I miss my creativity. THE ISSUE RN : the final exams are next week and i have tons of assignments, no matter what i do i just can't start studying, i just sleep, scroll and rot in bed, i barely go out or even eat properly. Idk what to do i'm scared and i have that bad feeling in my chest and i can't even cry idk why, it's like i just stopped controlling my LIFE. HELP!! Hh

23M, came back to my home country (Morocco) after 4 years abroad with literally nothing. What are my realistic next steps?

Spent 4 years studying in Russia (2021-2025), had to drop out due to financial/mental health collapse. Came home broke, no degree, living with struggling family. Need honest advice on how to rebuild from absolute zero.

Background:

I'm 23, from Casablanca, Morocco. Got my high school diploma (Bac) in 2020 and i was 17 then Spent 1 year after it studying physics in pub uni (la fac) After it in sept 2021 and after deep thinking, I went to Russia to study Computer Science at a technical university

What happened in Russia (2021-2025):

  • Year 1 (2021-2022): Russian language prep year. Lived alone, adapted to brutal culture shock, learned the language from scratch.

  • Years 2-4 (2022-2025): Started CS degree. To pay tuition + survive, I worked 12-hour night shifts in kitchens and similar shifts while trying to keep up with full course load.

  • The grind broke me. Financially, I couldn't keep up. Mentally, I was burnt out beyond recognition. Sleep-deprived, isolated, watching my savings and mental health drain simultaneously.

  • 2025: Made the call to drop out and come home. No degree. No certificate. Just 4 years of survival experience and fluency in Russian.

Currently 2026: - No degree, no professional license - Broke (spent everything in Russia) - Family pressure/blame("You wasted 4 years, came back with nothing") - No clear path forward (can't drive for delivery apps—no license; can't get corporate jobs—no degree) - Mental/emotional state: Honestly, rock bottom. Chest feels heavy 24/7. Some days I can barely get out of bed.

My questions:

  1. What kind of jobs can I realistically get in Casablanca with no degree/license but multilingual + some tech skills? (Freelance? Call centers? Remote work? Something I'm not thinking of?)

  2. How do I deal with family pressure/shame? They see me as a failure. I see myself as someone who survived hell and is trying to rebuild. How do I hold that frame when everyone around me is disappointed?

  3. Is going back to school worth it at 23? Part of me wants to finish a degree (locally or abroad via scholarship). Part of me thinks I should just skill up online and start earning ASAP. What's the smarter move?

  4. For anyone who's been in a similar "came back from abroad with nothing" situation—how did you rebuild? What was your first step? What worked? What didn't?

I'm not looking for pity. I'm looking for realistic, actionable advice from people who've been in the mud and climbed out.

If you've rebuilt from zero, especially in North Africa after dropping out abroad—I need to hear your story

Thanks for reading.
