Our higher education system is centred around quarterly exams of one type or the other. These exams, tests, grades, attendance, and GPA destroy the true essence of learning. Instead of understanding, students focus on passing or achieving high scores, leaving no room for real appreciation of knowledge. This turns the process of learning into a cycle of stress, depression, and unhealthy competition. Students don’t truly learn; they just survive. The joy of learning fades when all a student thinks about is, ‘What if I get low marks?’ or ‘What if I fail?’. The nature of the curriculum should be analytical and the grading system should not be seen as an intelligence-measuring tool.
