Reforms in Examination and Education System “India has examination system, not education system”

Abstract

The examination system of India has remained unchanged for so many years. No doubt this system is full of stress that’s why most of Newspaper and magazines publish articles on this topic during the examination session in the education system of India, ability of a student is decided by an examination. In this system, there is no place for the performance of a student in a full academic session. Scoring more and more marks in exams has become the only aim of a student. First of all, if this system is better then all those who scores good marks in these must be brilliant and successful life. But reality is different now a day most of the institutions do not give admission on marks basis. They have a separate test and this trend is growing rapidly because they have no faith in this examination system. The mindset of the society is also responsible for making the exam a source of stress. If someone scores good marks in examination, then society starts treating him like a hero. On the other hand, if someone scores less mark than society treats him just like an untouchable. At this point one question arises what is the importance of getting more and more marks in an examination? Just getting admission in a reputed educational institution or making a first impression to any employer firm. If anyone gets a job, then he must have to perform well on practical front marks of any examination won’t work there only knowledge will work there.
