Significance of Exams
For many years, a lot of people prefer to show their success with the help of many documents because they want to prove it. This situation can be abserved in our education system.Exams have always been one of the most important concepts in our school lives to pass the class and show our success. Although, many people claim that exams are actually necessary for students.
The main claim of many supporters of the idea that exams are useful is that the exam grades, make students easily realize, in which subjects they are insufficient and need more study. Therefore, exams prompt them to consider their weakness, improve them, that they can be more successful.
Secondly, exams are important to make students become more motivated and they make tenacity to take high grades, because they want to show their friends that they are the most diligent students. Moreover, they think that because of their high grades, their tutors and their families would appreciate them. Therefore, exams are motivating for the students.
The main idea of the opponents of the exams suppose that this system affects students psychologically. By taking low grades, students start to lose their self-esteem and they feel themselves like a complete failure. However, they seem to forget that modivation positively affects students psychology. Students begin to study a lot of because they start to realize they can achieve something.
In conclusion, having considered both sides of the argument I must say exams are important in our lives because they make us more disciplined and motivated. In addition, it is a chance to improve our knowledge to know how much we know and how much we miss about a certain subject.
