Experiments with Examinations

Have you ever been to a school or college for a year? Then you surely would have written at least one examination. After a year (or semester) full of lectures and manipulations at the lab, you will face an examination, that will evaluate your academic brilliance. But does it?

Examinations are not just student evaluation tools. They are meant to be the turning points in our lives, that can dramatically affect our lives. Examinations have overpowered the true spirit of learning and it is evident from the phrase “Examination point of view”. Usually most students and teachers love to study/teach for the exams. But does this make them a good person? Mostly it succeeds in churning out professionals with high marks and good levels of practical knowledge. In a this is what we are trying to achieve. A rapid search through the previous year question papers will make us 'exam ready'. Just identify the pattern of repeating questions and study them. Simple!!

Right now, in the midst of exams I've all these weird ideas in my mind. Should I learn my subjects or study for the exams? The idealistic me advocates for the former. But I prefer to choose the later, because, that's necessary for my survival.
