2. Students are often observed fearing examinations just because
they look upon them as burden. The only way out is working
hard and leaving the rest to fate. One must retain firm belief in
his or her capabilities and stop worrying about the
consequences. Destiny never disappoints the brave. If we
determine to do our best with utmost honesty and diligence, no
force on this planet can stop us from achieving whatever we
desire. The way to perform exemplarily in examinations passes
through preparation beforehand and not waiting for the eleventh
hour to begin. According to an ancient Indian belief, man must
work meticulously to accomplish his aspiration without expec-
tations. Let’s not fear examinations anymore. Instead let’s test
them the genius inside you.

3. In the present century and the centuries to come, life is becoming so complex
that examination has come to play an important role in one’s educational career.
It is said that child is the father of nation. Today’s child may be the leader of to-
morrow. Every country must have mechanism start from school to select good
student to become a leader in every walk of life of the country. Through the ex-
aminations students develop the ability to express his thought and that to in a
manner that other can understand it. Examinations also reflect that student has
acquired a certain amount of knowledge in some branches of study. Besides, the
mind of the students, even if he is dull, receives good exercise when he prepare
for examination. Examinations teaches also a lot of things and give training to
various things like punctuality, writing skills timing sense and above all express-
ing their thoughts and opinions. So with the examination time approaching, I
take this pleasure to wish you all good luck .
