Just Test Scores



Test scores!
The hard heartbeat of students
The illusion of excellence for students
The overemphasised necessity for success of students
Inventions and innovations do not originate from test scores
Great scientists and philosophers were failed by test scores
According to test scores, Albert Einstein was not good enough
But today test scores prepare tests about the life of Albert – history

Multiple choice questions!
Easiest way of projecting test scores
Failing all can be assured by intention
Scoring high can occur by occasion
Test scores itself has failed to measure intelligence
How much more success
Have you ever seen this in real life: what is the next step? A. continue   B. rob a bank   C. just die   D. keep calm and play on
The inventor of multiple choice questions Fredrick J Kelly was just trying to relieve teachers of stress in marking; not having the concerns of any student in mind.

Score 6 out of 10 today
Score 9 out of 10 tomorrow
What’s the difference anyway?
Turn 6 upside down; you got 9
Turn 9 upside down; you got 6
It makes no difference
They are just figures; just test scores
Something out of something

School is great but test scores are trivial
Don’t suicide for test scores
Not having a strong memory to recall
Everything does not mean you’re useless
Wisdom is the application of knowledge
Having the best test scores gives no wisdom; it only creates a bloated head as a reward for possessing retentive memory.
Burst a bloated and empty head
Embrace wisdom and live happier
Forget about test scores

HOW HE ENTERED ME

Image
Gosh, he's huge and he's going to enter me. Though I've dealt with pain most of my life, I still wonder how this will seem to be. Especially when I take a glance at little Phoebe and after he entered her. It's like his very touch made her whole life sad. Who was that who entered her? But on the other side, look at Valerie too and how she carries herself about. Was all that not after they said he came into her life? Now she's as joyous than she could ever be. All  because of him I presume. Who is he? Well, there's a man who said he'll never leave "me" nor forsake "me". Through the darkest points and behind closed doors he'll be "my" key. I remember the Sunday school madam said that's what God said. But he said he could be him in my life if only I may.   My life's not being perfect, far from what I thought it will be The wrongs I've done and things I've touched. The lies I told, infact on s

FROM MY SIDE : THE LAND OF CORONAVIRUS

Image
The year started beautifully as churches, organizations and institutions started shouting their themes for the year at 12am during 31st night. Everything was magical, different kinds of beautiful fireworks were thrown into the sky just to welcome this year. The year looked promising at least for me as a young lady I had lots of activity planed as my new year resolutions, but little did I know that the year also had its own plans .I woke up one day and heard Chinese were dying. But the question was why were they dying, what was going on there, and then I decide to research and found the exact thing killing them. CORONA VIRUS. I have read the lexicon, I mean the dictionary from page to page, cover to cover but I never came across this word. I thought I had seen it all, not knowing some were in stock for me to witness. CORONAVIRUS, a word which when people see, they could tremble, at the sound of it people begin to shake, not to the extent when people come into close contact w

University:The place to have sex?

Image
University is the place to have sex? Before people enter university, they have the perception that to have sex there, is simple like rolling a dice. Is that so, or is that a joke? If that's so,  are the boys the cause or the girls at fault? I thought relationship in the university brings about this sex Issue,  but that is no longer the case. If you are a darling fresh boy, If you have the money, If you have the class, the gateway is opened to you. Are the girls now cheap? Or to have sex is now the latest trend. It's always said that, it is difficult to find a virgin in the university. I always never believed it,  because it's like saying, a fish can climb a tree. But until I entered, before I realised it. So are we now going to still make this perception rule over us? Or is it now Satan? Do we now smell Satan,that he has something brewing in hell’s kitchen  for us. . it’s been a long time he did stewing. Has he concocted a recipe, full of immora
