2. Topic36: Examinations are not a good way to judge a
student’s ability
3. Too much importance is attached to exams at school. Do you
agree? –Pd- Qui.
• Why say too much importance is given to exams and that it is time
to change the way we monitor out children’s development at school.
• Firstly, I think that the examination system is unfair because
sometimes two students with the same ability in a subject get very
different exam results. This is because one is much better at taking

exams than the other.
• Apart from this, exam questions often test how much a student has
remembered about the things he or she has been taught in the
classroom.
• As a result, students are often encouraged to learn facts by heart,
instead of how to use the information and how to think for
themselves.
• Lastly, it seems to me that exams sometimes have a bad effect on
teaching, as teachers are usually judged by the exam results of their
students.
• Consequently, they are often more interested in preparing their
students for the exams than in making their lessons lively and
stimulating.
