No one in the world is perfect. If they are really that. Then they are not humans. Exams are the part of the studies in academics. They are the primary selections for future. But, I don't think so that knowledge will be permanent with us. The person who has talent at that moment is the one be successful in the future. So, keep on learning, not for marks for your future.

Students are really fed up with the studies. If the study load could be reduced then they will be more helpful. Everyone is worried about marks but not concerned about gaining knowledge.

Yes friends, you are right examination had killed everyone's talent in their hearts. Examination is nothing. Exams cause unnecessary stress. No important weightage to sports and other co-curricular activities. How do evaluate quality with a formal test? so one paper cannot change the mind of the talented students.

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.

Yeah, I think as by scoring good marks in an exam we can't prove anything. Its just like reading 100 of words within a day for the exam and remembering nothing after exams means of no use na. So education should be like that that students can study by enjoying and can express their talent.

In my view, examination is not the only way to judge the talent of a person because some people study before the day of exam just because of fear that they have to score well and for that they just mug up whole concept and its like they vomit on exam paper and after few days they forget the whole concept. So the one exam paper scoring is not the way to judge the one's talent. The education system should be such that the students should learn the things with their interest in the field, not by force. There are many talented students in India who do not score well in exam but they have knowledge and talent but they cannot properly express it because of language problem or because of fear so the students who are scoring less we should give chance to them also to excel in their own interested field. Many students we have seen they suicide because of exam pressure They might be talented in other fields but due to pressure to score well in exam they leave their talent and by forcibly they focus their mind in exam in which they are not interested. Exam is necessary but we always cannot judge people based on their scores in exam. The job should not be given to a person only based on marks sheets but the person should be given job based on their talent and based on their interest for that. One marks sheet or examination sheet cannot change the human's talent inside them.

Examination is not a matter of life the death. Rather it is matter of joy. To tell the world that you know it. To show your worth.

Hello, friends. I am Nabakumar Bhakat.
I have already studied your concept about the topic "EXAMINATION- HAS IT KILLED EDUCATION".
I will say that examination is very essential in our life. If we can't give the exam then how a student can identify himself and how can he understand who is he or she? and also which position will belong him or her? In the first job interview the interviewer first see how many persentage he got in his or her exam. So the examination is very necessary to a person who search a job? and its also essential to increase our thought. That means what is wrong? and what is right? because practical exam can't full fill our satisfaction.

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.

Consider the situation, your one semester has ended and there is no such an exam like thing. What will happen now? How can one evaluate what you have studied in that semester? There are 2 ways either he evaluate you on basis of your practical knowledge in that subject or he may ask you orally. Both of these ways are not effective. Because all subjects can not be implemented practically and orally. If you are going to be enrolled in any job, how will you show your skills at that time? Practically or orally! I An electric technician has equivalent practical knowledge than an Engineer. So is he different?How to make difference. There should be exams that show how well you know your subjects and stream.
