(1) Many people say that examinations should be abolished because they are not the best measure of student's capabilities. These people believe that students can study on their own and do better without the nagging worry and pressure exerted by examinations.
(2) Yet, there are persuasive reasons to show that examinations should not be abolished. It is insufficient that teachers assign homework and correct it. Because this is not done under supervision, they cannot be sure that it is really the work of the students themselves. Moreover, homework is not a test of student's ability. Homework is a method of merely keeping him occupied.
(3) Nowadays, in the hunt for jobs, students need to produce some evidence of their capabilities. Prospective employers like to see copies of examination results. This is the only way a student's qualifications can be judged. This attitude greatly encourages the use of examinations, since it is considered it necessary for them to measure their capabilities.

A. Exam result is the only proof of student's capabilities.
B. Nobody trusts the students nowadays.
