BTEC

A vocational qualification that is extremely demanding and demoralising by consisting of too much coursework that is difficult to pass due to a demanding mark scheme. It is being phased out by UAL, OCR and other vocational qualifications.

Person 1: "I can't believe I passed BOTH my exams at distinction, yet my coursework is all capped at a pass."
Person 2: "Typical BTEC."
