Examinations

As we know all students over the world have to do exams to know how much they understand the materials. But, the examinations are different from one place to another and from one school to another. In this essay, I am going to discuss both sides of the topic if the exams are a fair assessment or not.

First, I want to talk about why some people don’t support taking exams. They think and believe tests make the students nervous and stressed about the exams. Another reason is some exams come from other colleges, which means different teachers fixed the questions. So, the students will face some difficulty because many students are used to solve the questions that their teachers use.

On the other hand, there are some who people prefer taking exams. One reason is to know in which level they are. With no exams we can’t know if the students understand enough or not. Another reason is the GPA. The GPA depends on the exam’s results so, it is important to have exams to know in which level the students are. Yet another reason is that students will be able to refresh their knowledge. That’s because they review the information for the test which will support their knowledge.

In conclusion, there are advantages of both for using or not using tests. However, on balance, I believe the arguments in favor are stronger than those against.
