Examinations - has it killed education

It has not killed students because This is a practice which makes our mind stable. It also judges that how much knowledge we have gained in a particular year. Through examination we can check our knowledge, strength. We can know our mistakes and work on it. If there would be no examination then students might not study hard. Even if we are habitual of studying just one day before of examination.

Hello everyone,

My name is Shikhar Keserwani and according to me, the examination is the best way of testing your knowledge within a limited time and exploring your skills and in this way, we never kill anyone knowledge but increased the knowledge of our own and test our skills.

Thank you.

The pattern of examination is not correct. In state board examination, If a question is out of textbook then a student getting full marks about that. Here we (students) getting lazy. Nowadays we had only bookish knowledge only other than the book we will be zero.

To avoid this problem the state govt must and should follow the CBSE SYSTEM in this system no question form text students brain starts working how we get an answer for this.

Our systems should not allow choice based credit system.

Hi friends.

As per the question, my point of view, yes examination kill education, because most of our parents think that education is the way to success, with that they force us to get good marks in the exam, so every student has own abilities to study, they can't force us to study if we are not interested, with that some students surrender their life, and another point is that it depends on us, how we are going to face exam if we are interested in the study and we had prepared well then there will be no tension, so friends we have to make our choice that make us happy.

Yes, education killed child's life it spoils their future, everyone abused their children for their studies and low marks.

The meaning of education is not mug up something and omit it on paper for short time for heaven feeling of self, teacher and parents, it's meaning related to what is your impact on surrounding by whatever you learnt from education. If you go through deeply then you become donor of knowledge.

I don't think examinations system has killed education, but with modernisation, surely our examination system has also changed. Early people used to study in order to gain knowledge, to make their dream come true, but today's generation only focuses on getting passed.

Thus leniency and not-so-serious approach towards life have killed our education system.

I think exams are nothing but just a formality. We should have fun while learning. The stress will only make you have burden but if you learn according to your choice you will surely create history.

Instead of approaching examinations as a medium to test a person's proficiency in a particular subject, they are viewed as a medium of judging one's abilities. The way students are Under the compulsion to write as exact as what is given in the text shows the misconception of examinations by the state board schools and often students find this way of approach as a difficult task and automatically they tend to develop a fear for examinations. Not just the way of conducting exams but also the way students are spoon fed by the teachers and the method of evaluation using the key set by a group of teachers are definitely not helpful. A unique approach to examination by schools will definitely raise the standard of students and thus I would conclude by saying that examinations conducted in a better way never kills education.

Examinations should be the source for testing the skills of the students that what exactly they have learnt in the entire year. But nowadays, it is really sad to see that examinations have lost their meanings. They have just become the piece of paper and a burden for students- that too not for learning but of getting the highest marks in the class. And to a good extent, I would say that it's the parents and teachers who are responsible for this as they compare one student with another irrespective of thinking that every student has a unique quality. Education is not just academic knowledge. Education completes one's life by letting know how to be a good person, how to behave in society, how to respect your elders, how to be a responsible citizen and what not!

The examination should examine the student wholly and that's it. Marks are just numbers! And just temporary happiness which is of no use in the long run!

Thanks.
