Answers
students are feeling it as a burden it should be change exams should be conduct after some time for each keeping examinations gives a lot of trouble for students it makes students to commit suicide
The Examination System existing today, hardly assess the real worth and intelligence of the candidate. If two different examiners check same answers,we come across a lot of difference One may be liberal and another may be skilful, the way of marking differs a lot. The present day examination system is just a matter of chance, no security or reliability can be placed. The nervousness that a student goes through during exam, makes him the lessons that he had learned.
Whereas a mediocre student may perform well in an examination by preparing some selective topics, a meritorious student may not fare better comparatively. The reason is questions are set from a few topics. Instances of great men like Winston Churchill, Mahatma Gandhi, Albert Einstein, and Edison may be cited in this respect.
Our examination compels students to prepare for those topics or for which students are not interested. Great minds cannot be tested by the prevailing examination system that is defective. The term examination makes a student unnecessarily nervous.
Examinations are thought as a test of the ignorance of students. But it is not justifiable. The present system of examination encourages the habit of cramming. No step has yet been taken to rectify the defects so far. We find that a student fleets his time carelessly for the whole year without study as reading for a few days before the day of examination enables him to pass the examination. They pass the examination just by getting by heart some selective topics.
Another method adopted by students now a day for passing is by copy. The examination encourages idleness, copying and carelessness.
For eradicating such evils the progress of a student should be judged not by the final result but by taking into account the result of several examinations conducted by various examiners. Otherwise dull students would be able to show their brilliance where as good and sincere students would feel neglected and helpless.
There is a difference of judgment in awarding marks in essay type questions by different examiners. Examinations however cannot be avoided altogether. The question papers should be designed so as to test the overall aspect of a student. By such changes, the drawbacks of examination can be brought down up to a certain extent.
