How do you think about Examination???

Hi, Yes,I agree that there are so many arguments about the advantages and disadvantages of EXAMINATION.I think EXAMINATION would test our knowledge and creativity skills.It is just like a qualification.The EXAMINATION should be conducted regularly instead of tests.If EXAMINATIONS are conducted for three months once and the student needs to learn all the subjects they have studied those three months.It is a big burden for some students.So a new EDUCATION system should be brought out to prevent the burden of students.But some scholars say that EXAMINATION should be conducted for whole portions which would provide great knowledge to the students.According to my view,due to Examinations some students grow up while others come down.For higher jobs only EXAM marks will give a chance for their employment.

Unfortunately the examinations is the only way a person can find what is looking for. There are a lot of types of examination. There are really stressing and not original examination methods and methods where the examined doesn't know to be examined because it's so involving and interesting he doesn't care about it. For example: a teacher gives to a class a specific problem about the last studied argument. He asks questions to the class, he lets students guess and try to solve together a step for every student. That would be a very useful, interesting and original (or unusual) way to examinate someone.

Hi, Talking about examination, it reminded me of my school time. I always got anxious when come to examination.I have to memorize my notes well and hope what I studied did come out in the examination questions. From my point of view, examination is part and parcel of study and it is a way to test the student whether they actually knew well that particular subject and it is alsp a way to test the student capability to solve problems.

Examinations are a way to measure the candidate's ability. Who ever says this is in correct in my point of view. The examinations are good to inculcate the competitiveness among the students, candidates and those who take the exams. But it would be wrong to say that these are the final measures when it comes to accessing the abilities and skills of the participants. I may have prepared well for the exams but it is just that they asked me those things that I skipped and this in no way should imply that I am less competent. I would not consider the examinations to be a burden, instead I would consider them to be a place / situation where I can learn and master the attributes of - timeliness, performance, competitive spirits and such good things. If I fail in the examinations, I take it up as a challenge to perform better the next time and never think that I am in anyway inferior. It is just that the luck was not by my side or I need to do a better preparation.

I think think anyone truly loves examinations, whether we are prepared or not for them they are like Ugh a chores. However I believe examinations are a challenge to how we absorb and utilize the materials at hand. I suppose not being prepared ban extremely burden a student. However who likes them anyway.

i think there is nothing wrong with examination. pros and cons about something is normal. lets say if there is no examination, how can we measure students understanding about one certain topic or material? giving only material to the students without having any feedback from students about what they have learned and understood will make the teacher and students confused whether the material shared is really comprehended or not. so, better examination is applied. it is perhaps a burden for students, but that could be the reason for students to study...

For me examination is the way you can know how you learn about it.

Well,Some Examinations are of 2 or 3 hours durations, we have to do well in this period, what we have studied in whole year. Some says it all about luck,FOR-EXAMPLE A student successfullyy attempted all questions, He only prepared last 4 lessors, On the other hand, A student skipped last 4 lessons, while he was prepared for other 8 lessons, and he failed in the examination. Examinations tests mostly Written skills. No concept of communication skills here which is essential part of life.

Maybe this is not a perfect way to test students, but there has to be a modality for teachers to know how the students have assimilated the courses. And there has to some sort of division between students, what is regarded to the amount of knowledge they got. I prefer to have exams at the end of the semesters and then we need to learn a lot and the rest of the semester we are free and it is not a must to learn during it.

I've never liked exams but it does give me the motivation to study harder. It puts you under a lot of stress and I think it's a good indicator for most pupils on how much they know. If you were ill or having a bad day or worrying about other stuff and you fail then that's when it's tough luck for you. Just hope for the best as it's chance as well as having studied. People have different abilities on different things so don't worry if you have failed, just try harder lolz

Well, examinations can come in different types. Some enhances the memorization others makes one think more. Though it may burden students more, with all the memorization and stuff but i guess exams and quizzes is one way to test out those things we learn. there is such thing as OJT or projects to show off their abilities other than in written exams. I still see it as an exam though so yeah, examinations test our mind and see if ever we have truly learned something from all the studying we did.

Although the examination can't completely measure how the students studied,we have to admit that there are many talent people who are picked out by examinations or competetions in our society.There still are some disadvantages of examination,but we need to try to accept it without protest.comparatively speaking,it is the most subjective way to judge students whether they acturally master the knowledge.

hi xtmlove, there are various kind of examinations and each has its own purpose why it was made that way... examinations exists for a very long time and we found it in every instuition, in school, in applying for a job, contests and other stuff.. i believe, as long the exams has serve it purpose(the quality vs quantity policy) and made the passers more productive, it will be fine. happy mylotting. -)

For students, they make think its a burden to their part. but the truth is, Examinations will help them test their comprehension skills. On the other hand , examinations is not the only instrument to test the mastery skills of the examinees. Gross motor skills may be tested through return demonstrations. Students can make videos, or powerpoints to improve their creativity and the way they will think will expand more.For me application will help too, in testing the students' skills.

I always take examination very serious. I never make it fun. Because I know examination is the very important part of our carries and study. So I always take it in serious way. But I never take it as a headache. Because there are many person who always takes exams as a headache. But I never do this.

i think the examination will be the most useful way to test on a person before other useful methods are proposed.it offers some information about the students'problems with their studies in some way.i don't think it's a burden to sudents.conversely,i think it will be a motivation in their studies.

....for me examination is the only way to test the students knowledge or to test their capabilities of that particular subjects....But...examination also is the way of dishonesty because some students might not give their best efforts on the day 0of examination, they tend to cheat because they failed to study that's why they get high scores.....:-)

oh i absolutely hate exams .... i am glad that i am out of that chains of exams ..late night tensions ... ya exams do really get on my nerves and make me behave in much different way ... its pretty hard at times for me cause i am a last moment studying person ,,, and several subjects really can't be learned on the last day !~!!
