In real if we consider a math exam if we do not score good marks than we are treated poorly in that subject but it is wrong in that exam we scored less marks due to lack of time or pressure to finish it on time and on the hand if we do that question at home we can slovenly them easily so exam is not a way of determining one's knowledge so only focus should be given to increasing knowledge and one's talent should determined by his interest in that field.

Examinations have caused instability among children and made education a by-product. In today's time the actual goal is to score 100% irrespective of whether you have or have not understood the chapter. It focuses more on learning word by word rather than experiments and experience. Hence, exams have killed education.

Examinations - has it killed education! definitely and only that student can understand that who have the pressure of getting a high percentage. If I said in a straight way nowadays education system examination gives an only percentage, not knowledge.

In nowadays, the education system has become like a spoon feeding. So that during the time of examination students used to study that topics but unable to apply anywhere. If we continue the same system in future we may lags at Present technology.

Finally, my opinion is changing the examination system towards applications, practicals student can able to learn something about that concept.

Hello Friends,

Examination and Knowledge are two most important aspect of student life.

But according to present situation examination are not only building pressure & stress on the student life and also kill their creativity power.

Examination should be knowledge oriented not marks and grade oriented. Education should also have it's prime focus on employment not on the reputation of the institutions and university.

So overall our examination patter should reform or review. It is need of hour.

Education is for knowledge, in my view knowledge of a person can not be determined by just 2, or 3 exams. Due to this system of examination students are pressurized to read the syllabus and get good score. The system never let the student free to read the things they are interested in because they have very less time for extracurricular activity.

Exam is the way to test our knowledge. But why our knowledge is tested? I have knowledge. I gain it not to show everyone, I gain it to do it theoretically. Education system is totally killed by this examination. Now a days education is not about gaining knowledge its all about a race and everyone is running to touch the rope, they can not see that there 1000 miles to go to complete the race.

Thank you.

Hi Frnds,

From my point of view, examination has killed all education. Bcoz, All children have a talent like in
-> Studies
-> Sports
-> Dance
-> Art
-> Music
and etc.

So if we take the examination only studies get involved not any others. when a student takes 80% mark the 70% student will feel sad and it keeps on going. So when they cut exams all the children talent will come out and our India will be always first.

Good evening to everyone, examination is the important part to check that whether the student is learning something new or not we can't say that examination killed the education rather than this we can say that examination pattern is not that much good that it should be. Yes I am agree that we can't judge anyone in 3 hrs but we can understand the knowledge level of the person, so examination is important but yes examination method can be change.

We can make it more practical rather than theroretical.

The examinations killed the education in my point view, Indian education is very different other countries in our psychology in Indian parents psychology only for marks but not gaining knowledge in other countries parents thinking only gaining knowledge level so I think losing the knowledge. More prefer for theoritical so in my opinion more preferred for practical gaining more knowledge. In this system theoretical gain more marks but no knowledge preferred more concentration on practical in school college and any place. 80percent students are stress and motivated our parents. In my opinion, the decision takes ourselves. And which type education suitable take decision.
