Filling in the blanks;
choosing the right alternative;
deciding whether true or false;
defining and justifying;
comparing and contrasting;
coding, compiling and debugging;
estimating and proving;
integrating and differentiating;
plotting and interpreting,
illustrating and debating.
These are not just some questions from a school or college exam.
They also appear in the question paper of life’s exam.
In school and college exams, we get grades as proof of our merit.
In life’s exam, we get experiences to help us reach our summit.
Grades are not as important as experiences but
getting a good grade is in itself quite an experience.
