Smartness

How many of you have just memorized certain thing of a subject in order to get a good grade on a test, just to get it over with? But, you never though back to it. I believe a test should not define if a student is capable of being superior. "Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid". First of all, some students may be extremely good at a subject and understand the concept, but they may still get a bad grade on a test. On the other hand, a high test score does not always stand for a very strong personal ability. Lastly, not only those who get very high test scores can achieve success.
To begin with, some students can be very well at a subject, but still fail the test. Not every student is good at taking tests but can be good on hands on material if they understand the concept. For example, in my case, I am very good at math. Although, there are times where I just blank out because I’m too nervous about what I’m going to get on the test and don’t actually pay attention to the test. When students get nervous they tend to second guess themselves and then that causes them to pick the wrong answers which get them points off. I find testing difficult because the way they explain the question. My hypothesis towards test is students shouldn't be judge by failing their test but should also look at their class work and intelligence they have.

Lastly, not only those who get very high test scores can achieve success. When you’re older, your test grades from middle school are most likely not going to matter to you. If it does, you need to know that people with average test scores can still get into good jobs in the future, and they will still succeed somehow. Test scores only stands for a small part of one's smartness. Test scores are a reflection of your daily study. A good examination results indicates that you study hard, know how to go ahead
