Examination Fails

by mfarnold June 2025


Examinations break society

into fragments of disunity,

That favours the elite

To control individual destiny.

Isolating and disturbing identity,

Forcing standardised mentality,

for industrial market bureaucracy,

in constant competition and envy.

That drives the whole

Advertising industry.

Is this sanity?


It stimulates

short-term memory,

lost immediately after delivery,

Losing 8 of 12 months

of quality teaching and learning

for its preparation

and execution,

An actual waste of potential.


Few teachers can set

Good questions, 

hence cut and paste

for “advisers’ perfection”,

which disorient

learners with sections, 

never taught,

causing many noughts.


It claims Maslow’s

Hierarchy of needs,

but wants self-actualisation,

without the love and safety 

levels.


It creates fears and stress

That make achievements less,

but medical and crime 

investment-profits in excess.


It fools many to accept,

because it feeds the ego

of the bereft,

Who boasts about their

children’s success,

while the masses 

bleed with distress.


Examination controls

Access to limited 

job opportunities,

because it favours 

naturally talented memory

individuals and 

the well resourced,

but causes the

high unemployment scourge.


Politically created

mass housing shortage,

ensures many failures

for wage manipulators.


Save finance- Replace Exams

with step by step,

practical prep,

that ensures 100%

success 

for all to progress -

Creating a natural

full employment process,

through learn-and-earn access

and have a healthier,

happier social activeness,

instead of a docile, 

examination dumbness.

  1. Where is dignity, honour, self worth and community in this realm, breeds pompous and hedonistic souls, Ubuntu and Ummah are remote if not, absent,
