Education is about Knowledge, Exams are about Result

in past •  5 years ago 

It is not essential that if someone knows then he will also achieve decent marks in the exams. A well-educated person would know, but they don't need to have a good score in exams. You need more than the knowledge to score well in the examination. The ability to apply the learned skills and knowledge within the classroom rise many queries. Exams are meant to test the knowledge of the students and work as a filter to select intelligent marks by marks. Grades and marks can be gained through hard work and practice.

Grading System of Examinations usually considered Ineffective


Many so-called intelligent students are not able to cope up with the Question Papers. These papers allow sometimes a little or no original thought and can affect logical responses and creative thinking. Simply measuring the intelligence by examination is as limited as the examination itself. The grading system is considered the best system that depicts the intelligence of students. But it sometimes fails to identify many intelligent students as it is confined to specific criteria.

Examination System


The education system contains the pattern of exams due to the need to keep the entry tests as objective as possible. Therefore it removes any possibility for subjective judgment. Students solve a variety of problems daily so it depicts that they will get the same patterned Question in the exams as well. So the students can crack the test by the virtue of the habit, not by the knowledge and intellect. The traditional system of assessment is not capable of measuring the particular abilities. The work ethic, creativity and sense of purpose cannot be checked by exams. The schools are mostly promoting the passive form of intelligence because of assessment limitations.

But Exams Are Important Too


There is a positive side to the exams as well. The education system will not be as effective if the exams are completely removed from the system. The evaluation mechanism then only focuses on knowledge. This might sound great but the reality is the opposite. Mostly the students do not study regularly. They only do the preparation when the exams are nearby or before one night of examination. So this shows that if exams will not be taken then the students will not study anything. It will consider as a potential risk to the future. Thus exams are considered as the most essential tool to maintain the appropriate knowledge level. This concept cannot be termed as a failure; it does have some pros too. Students that are waiting for the 10th Class Results can access it after its declaration by the board officials.

Use of Different Approaches


The ultimate solution to this problem is to adopt the two different types of approaches

*Studying for absorbing knowledge
*Studying for exams

Studying for Absorbing Knowledge


During studying for knowledge the student can have the freedom to go in the detail of every topic. Search engines are used to understand the concepts in a better way. The research can be made on a vast scale to completely grab the related material.

Studying For Exams

Studying for exams need to be specific. Understanding is essential but it limits the core fundamentals only. Prepare only those topics that are considered important from the exam point of you. Some topics base on numerical problems whiles the other on theoretical questions. Make a good judgment about the topics and prepare them accordingly. This is all about the smart study that can lead you towards success in exams. Marks are very important and student needs to score well in the exam. As the exams of 11th class are approaching so it is recommended to students to check the 1st year date sheet to ensure better preparation. Students can also take help from 1st year past papers to ensure better preparation.

So do not move away from the examination as behave like an idealist. No one can deny the importance of exams in the education system. They act as a driving force to move the education level step by step. Some concepts should be memorized. Some others need only understanding to prepare the material. The combination of both such knowledge and good tricks can help you to score better. Students can easily reach their target by using this approach.
