We'll be having our final examinations this week Wednesday. After several attempts, I still can't make myself review. This always happens to me but fortunately, I survived all examinations.
Examinations are papers that gauge what a student knows. A student must pass his examinations in order to prove himself competent in a particular subject.
In my country, examinations are very important. In fact, examinations, in our grading system composes 60% of a student's general average. Writing what one memorized in a paper has been considered, by many, as a reflection of one's intelligence and competence. Teachers in my country say that examinations reflect how good a student is and how far he can go.
I don't agree with most people in my country. I've seen people ready to memorize and to literally digest a book in order to pass or perfect an examination but I can't find intelligence in them. I've seen people able to recite the table of elements including their atomic masses but I can't see logic and practicality. I've seen people who memorized the constitution, code by code, but I'm disgusted to hear them reason and argue.
A piece of paper can never measure how broad I see the world, how far I can go, how deep I understand things and how good a person I am.
