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

    I would assume that the primary language and civics are required in almost any country. They are essentially to being part of society.

    Also not surprised that religion is mandatory in a ME country. It’s often still mandatory in very secular countries (It was for me, even though we just fooled around).

    I don’t think there is anything unusual about Egypt here.

      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

        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
