In contrast to the rapid and astonishing development in various subjects, the way of measuring knowledge and ability remains as before, rather primitive. So far, there has been no way taht is more effective and reliable than exams in education, which seems kind of queer. Though some people believe that exams could weigh one’s knowledge level, the truth is just the opposite, as is obvious to all. Exams may be a not-so-bad solution to test the ability to remember something by rote or to answer questions quickly yet under great pressure, but they are in vain if you want to know about the gift, intelligence, or practical abilities of a person, especially for the art discipline.
