Education without exams is just great, but that should not be the case because exams are one of the ways the school or the parents gauge the effectiveness of the teacher and how much the students learn. Exams can also be used by teachers to know if her students are learning or not. So exams are important, don't think that exams are created to punish students because it is not.

I agree, because if a teacher can't give exams to their students then they won't know if they actually understood what they were being taught! It's important for this reason, but many schools are beginning to develop exams required before a person is allowed to graduate, which I think is a little overboard. School in the traditional sense is not for everyone, so "do or die" exams should not be allowed.

Yes, it is important to have exams in education system , without knowing your grades, how would one be able to assess you, and it is also necceaasry for differentiating good students and weak students, weak students didn't need to study more if there is no exam thing.

Having examinations is a very effective way of gauging the effectivity of a certain teacher or instructor on the other end, it is also one important gauge to see if the students learned something. Having no examinations would mean we will have so many professionals that are incompetent. Say for example having a medical degree without undertaking examinations, this would be very disastrous to the patients.

yes exams are really important in education because in exams the teacher could evaluate if the students learned the lessons or just how much the students learned from the teacher. without exams, the teacher will just be guessing of the child's capacity on how well and how far did the child can go with the lessons.

Exams help students in testing their knowledge.But i pwuldnt agree that a single exam would deide the fate of a student.There are many factors that should be taken into consideration.

No exams r important because it gives u a wakeup call on which areas u should concentrate also it develops a sense of competition among students. Without exams every one would be just passing the time and getting degree. So,no hardwork and very little learning.

If not exams there should be a mechanism to judge the knowledge of students. That is what i suppose as the answer to your question. Some kind of method should be there for it.

Exam is very needed in education sector. Everything requires education and exam is how we can judge ones education status. You need it for starting a job and maybe getting a friend. I am sure everyone likes smart people. What do you think about my idea?

Well exams plays an important role in ones education. It actually helps in evaluating individual where he stands and what level of understanding he is having of the subject. Without exams I cant see an education.
