Why should we get rid of exams? ∞ Exams takes up time which can be used to further educate an individual. ∞ It puts stress on the individual cause some students to overwork themselves. Overworking yourself can result in many things e.g. sickness ∞ Exams also hinder dishonesty by cheating which is brought up by stress, copying and also some teachers give students an unfair advantage in some cases. STRESS CAN ALSO RESULT IN HARMING YOURSELF DO YOU STILL THINK EXAMS ARE IMPORTANT? Well, I’m going to try a bit harder to change your mind. Exams are robbing pupils of their childhood and the opportunity to enjoy learning as something they would like to do not as something they are forced to do.
