What is the main purpose of schooling? Is schooling only to prepare the boys/girls to write the examination. In that case examination becomes the sovereignty of schools. In one of the schools of my locality my relative girl is studying XI standard in CBSE stream.She asked me why she has been put into examination daily.Nowadays teachers, parents and principals believe that only examination will drive students towards learning. In general test or examination are conducted to know what is understood by the students in the learning process. Examination can also be used as a tool for learning if properly used. Every examination should meet certain standards to improve upon the quality of learning. Examination cannot become a drudgery and become a laughing stock. During the course of schooling students should be trained to participate in the examination like they participate in sports and games. Examinations are useful to evaluate the students whether they are coming in the right track towards achieving the said objectives.
