In most colleges and universities the examination is used as a chief means of deciding whether a student succeeds or fails in mastering a particular subject. Although it does the job quite efficiently,side effects are also enormous.
To begin, examinations lower the standards of teaching. Since teachers are often judged
examination results, they are reduced to training their students in exam techniques. No subjects can be taught successfully merely through being approached with intent to take examinations. In addition, the most undesirable effect is
examinations encourage bad study habits. As
examination score is the only criterion for his academic performance, a student is driven to memorize mechanically rather
to think creatively.
In fact, fewus admit that examinations can contribute anything really important to the students’ academic development. If that is the case,
cannot we make a change and devise something more efficient and reliable than examinations?
