Are the examinations in the HCT fair?


From many years students in the HCT have studied to have the certificate of the college to increase their knowledge, but are examinations the best and fairest way of assessment in HCT. In this essay I am going to discuss whether examinations are useful in the HCT or not and why.
Every year many new students come to the HCT to study and these students have exams about every month to know if the students work hard, and to assess them at the end of the term. I think the exams are important to follow up the student and assess them; also these exams help them to know their area of weakness and fix it. These exams help student as well to keep studying well and work hard. The HCT is open more than twenty years and the way of assessing students has been the examination.
As we know, sciences develop in every second. I think the way of studying in the HCT also must develop faster than what’s happenings now. The exams are still not enough to know if the students are ready for the labor market and what is needed in the labor markets in the UAE. The management of the HCT must study the needs of the labor markets in the UAE and what are the areas of weakness of the study in the HCT to improve it. Exams are a good way but maybe the best way to know if the students are ready for work. There are many better ways than exams, one example of these ways is to make an interview with the students or let the student go to work for two to three weeks as a trainee. There are many ways to be used by the HCT management.
To conclude I think the HCT management must change the way of assessment of the student and improve the way of studying depending on what the government needs for future in the UAE and to keep the ways of examinations improving year by year.
