EXAMS: A MENACE TO STUDENTS AND
THE SOCIETY.
Exams (examinations) are a means to test the
intelligence level and their understanding on a
particular topic or topics for their own self-assessment.
Exams are conducted by schools, coaching institutes
and colleges. They are done to provide with the
students their own self-assessment analysis and
conduct their own self-analysis.
Exams have now in the prevailing education system has
become a medium of judging a person in the society. In
India students are judged not on their curricular skill,
social skills, general knowledge, sports skills but for
their studies and the marks their score instead.
Our society (Indian context) pressurizes a student to
score marks and makes the marks you earn in your
exams the only medium of judging your intelligence
and your caliber.
In India children are known for their social skills. They
are well versed in many things but they tend to make
their minds towards total study.
Giving focus to studies is the best thing that a student
can do to grant his own mind a prestigious gift of
productivity. But converting it only in studies by
ignoring other typical Indian skills is self-suicide.
Our studies is oriented to only Science and maths. The
Indian education system offers only three streams to
choose from for students. There is nothing wrong in
giving stream selection of students but the stream you
choose has become an indicator of the caliber of the
student.
A student choosing Science stream is an intelligent and
serious student.
In science stream as well the two sub streams are
available.
A boy should choose PCMC (engineering), while a girl
should choose PCMB OR PCB (medical).
The commerce stream is generally meant for girls but
boys choosing it are either dumb in studies and their
parents are rich or they are deeply interested in
numbers.
While, HUMANITIES stream is the worst for both boys
and girls.
A boy who only knows to study and is successful in it
and knows nothing other than studies earns more
respect than others who are equally talented in all
subjects. This happens especially in the academic life of
the student and the parents are the biggest credit
earners for the amount of discouragement given by
them for such students.
A person with no other skills than studies aces the
academic life but his overall social life which is the
longest life would be the worst for such kind of people
but people with equally talented skills in all other fields
earns better earning and living simultaneously.
This major fact is ignored in a country like India.
Harming the life of the student through exam is a need
has become a type of compulsion set up by the society
to pressurize students to become puppets or money
exchange medium as long as the double coincidence of
wants is prevalent.
