Because of the loss of their copy, 54 students from the Rhône have to retake a test of their professional bac.
A cold shower for these high school students who learned the news when they were awaiting their results.
Almost a month after the test, they must therefore return to a new subject, while many are in the middle of the summer internship.
"The whole class is upset."
Manuela, 17, does not lose heart.
She is one of these 54 students from the Rhône who, in spite of themselves, have to dive back into the revisions of the professional bac, almost a month later.
Copies of one of their major proofs were lost in transit to the correction center.
"We wonder how we are going to do", worries the young girl.
The test, called "E5", "is very complicated and includes three major subjects: biology, ESG [economics, service and management] and territory. It is very technical."

"We were completely out of our classes"
It is therefore a cold shower for these fifty high school students from the establishment of Belleville-en-Beaujolais and the MFR [private schools with associative status] of Villié-Morgon and Charentay. "There we were completely out of our lessons because we were on vacation. We were just waiting for the results, it's demoralizing," continues Manuela at the microphone of Europe 1.
Without forgetting that this new test interferes for many of these high school students with their internship. "I had to return urgently to be able to take my exam on Tuesday," confirms the young girl. "A lot of the students had to contact their employer to tell them they couldn't be there that day." But above all, Manuela does not understand why the administration forces them to retake the test. "Why can't we have continuous monitoring? Last year, certainly for health reasons, that was the case."
