Every college or school today depends on examinations to measure the performance of the students. There are two views, one supports banning exams and the other thinks exams are good.
First, the people who like to support banning exams have reasons and see this topic from different angles. However, examinations make students nervous and stressed. Otherwise, they think using homework is better than the examinations. Also, it’s an unfair way to assess knowledge. I want to argue that the examinations are not a good way for a complete evaluation of students skills and abilities. Examinations can’t measure all the knowledge except the questions on the exam sheets. So they focus just on important points.
On the other hand, exams are good incentive for students to study and review course materials. It helps them to work hard and study well. They are a fair assessment because the same test is used for all students and that shows the fair view for examinations. Also, exams help students to know what they understand and don’t understand of the course content, so they can go back and make sure they understand the material.
Overall, in my opinion both views have good points and I think I will take good points from the both views. The main point is we should make a mix between these good points and make sure we assign marks in a fair way.
