Answer:
It is said when the examinations are approaching, the students suffer from examination fever and rightly examinations are regarded as a curse by students. The approach of examinations means the beginning of fear in the mind of a student.
As a matter of fact, examinations are the only worry of students. They are the only unpleasant experience in an otherwise happy and carefree life. The bugbear of an examination interrupts the smooth course of a student’s life. Games, musical concerts, debates and other extra-mural activities are all stopped busy in preparations for examinations. Students are not to be found at the cinema-houses, restaurants and other places of entertainment during the examination days.
Examinations are held to test students’ ability, to check up the work they have done during a term, to judge what progress they have made and to determine whether they have been utilising or wasting their time. If there were no examinations, the merits of the various students could not be judged, nor would the majority of students take any interest as it is only the fear of examinations that makes students work.
