Exams are accountability and Accountability breeds responsibility. People should become responsible fo seek knowledge and understanding due to fear of exams. But at the same time, teachers and parents should also create an environment and culture of affirming the potential of students that they come to see in themselves, they should recognise the interest of students in particular subject and encourage them to go into deep. And lastly, be a help for them whenever needed but don't pressurise them to get numbers. Because student are in need of unconditional love and empathy.

Hello.

My point of view is that, exam are not necessary till higher education. Because those who want study will study but in researchical wayand those who not want to study will get there basic education and they will show talent on aother field. It will also remove the nervous breakdown of student in early ages.

According to me, our education system is not developed you know by our reservation and unwanted marks children want something new in this time education is not important, marks are more important than knowledge.

According to my opinion, students must have the full independence to prove their talent. But unfortunately, our education system puts bound on that. Our education system has become the only measure of testing the memory power of students. Taking the example of two students one who is good at cramming and the one who is not, the one having more cramping power will get a good score but the other who is not good at cramming but has a lot of practical knowledge will be left behind and can't score well. So our examination system is not an effective way of testing our abilities but rather an indicator of our memory power.

Hi,

I don't really think that 'Examinations' should be blamed for killing education. It is we who decide whether it'll be killing us or make our lives. Examinations are not meant to judge how much brains do we have or how brilliant and intelligent we are, but are meant to check how properly we have absorbed the syllabus included in our studies and how nicely we are able to put it down on paper while each student is under the pressure of what result their performance will bring to them.

HELLO GUYS.

I partially agree with the statement that examination system kills the education. In our society, three types of students are there.

1. People who don't like study.
2. People who love to study and having enthusiasm for study, they understand the subject in depth.
3. People who are cramming mugging without the feel of the subject and without understanding.

For the people type 1.

As you all know these people does not give their time to education if they are not forced. So by the fear of exam some what they get the knowledge by fear of exam.

For type 2 student, they love to study, exam makes people perform in pressure. They have very keen interest in education so they should be provided with the practical facility so that they explore the things.

For type 3 students, for these students exam is killing education because they are mugging without knowing the things, but by mugging, they get the marks and the purpose of education is not completed. For those type of students, the education system should be changed, it should be practical. So that mugging, cramming will not help this type of student.

Exams are just like a student learns all his lessons and write them in the exams like a trained parrot is asked to.

Exams don't test our creativity and moreover, Indian Parents put a lot of pressure on their kids to score ranks.

Hi, Friends.

According to my point of view, examination is important because without examination Students never studied their subject properly other not even without exams most of the students don't touch there books also so exam is very important.

Exams are not judged the student's talent but only because of exams no. Of student studied otherwise, they do not open the books.

So examination is very important to improve knowledge, and fear of exam all the student study properly.

Hello.

I do not totally agree because examinations are one of the ways that help us to judge our knowledge. As per my concern, I think exams are compulsory till 5-6 class that help a student to judge themselves and even they get how they have to study but as in upcoming classes there should be more important to have a practical knowledge and at that stage exams are compulsory but the format should have been Changed. Exams are also held in some practical ways that definitely help our students to growth their knowledge and talent and it is one of the best steps for the development of our country.

Because as we all know in our country students have genius minds but the implementation is not properly done because of the faulty education system. If it improves then our unemployment issue also overcome at some extend.

Thank you.
