What's an examination

Image
  Examination means the test of a student’s knowledge in  prescribed subjects. An examination creates a sort of care in students to prepare their studies sincerely. Examination may be of various types such as oral, written and practical. In lower classes oral test is conducted in lieu of written test since students do not have the ability to write at that age. In higher classes of course written test is invariably conducted. In science and technical studies, practical examinations are conducted. Examination ascertains the proficiency of a student up to a certain limit. It induces students to prepare well in the subjects given to them. But by examination the real talent of students cannot be fathomed. The research minded scholars have been found not to have performed well in the stereotyped examination. Examination is a necessary evil. It is quite understandable that whenever we put in hard work to make successful and venture, we wait for some time to see or guess the res...

  Writing an essay is a kid’s job What is an essay- An academic essay is a focused piece of writing that develops an idea or argument using evidence, analysis and interpretation . There are many  types of essays  you might write as a student. The content and  length of an essay  depends on your level, subject of study, and course requirements. However, most essays at school level are  argumentative : they aim to persuade the reader of a particular position or perspective on a topic. We may have seen that when we were in middle school level we had written the essay in just 10 sentences. But after moving to high school level we have to write it in 250 to 300 words. The essay writing process consists of three main stages: Preparation:  Decide on your topic, do your research, and create an essay outline. Writing:  Set out your argument in the introduction, develop it with evidence in the main body, and wrap it up with a conclusi...

The ideas within the introduction should be general enough for the reader to understand the main claim and gradually become more specific to lead into the thesis statement. (See the Introductions handout for further information.)   Thesis Statement  The thesis statement concisely states the main idea or argument of the essay, sets l...

  Note: Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:-   The role, friends play in our life has become significantly greater than at any other time in our history. Today many of us live and work at great distance from where we were born or grew up and are separated from our original families. The pain we feel when we are away from our families can be significant. The happiness of individuals relies on friendships which form a necessary human connection. It is perfectly normal to need and want friends and depression is more prevalent among those who lack friends. They lack the intimacy and richness; friends reflect similar values to us. Yet these values are often different from the ones we grew up with; they are the values we created for ourselves in our adult lives. Communication skills are fundamental in all friendships. The more friends and acquaintances one has, the greater are one’s communication skills. Some call these people’s skill. Like wateri...
