Scrapping Schools

Prem was very jubilant when the education minister of India Mr. Kapi announced the introduction of a bill to scrap School leaving Exam altogether. The Minister is also planning to Scrap the twelfth standard Exams too. Prem being a convent educated student was critical of the way nuns handle the students to keep the reputation of the instituition.

Prem went to see the Guru to ask his opinion on the matter

Prem => "At last we have got a education minister who is sane !"

Guru => "Debatable ..."

Prem => "Why did u say so ?"

Guru => "People learn only when there is reward or prospect of getting punished "

Prem => "Is it ? "

Guru => "The Minister is repeating the Kerala model education scheme where more people passed in the exam will boost the govt's image. At least that is what these people think "

Guru => "By making things more easy , Minister is bringing medocrity in the country "

Prem => "What about Scrapping +2 exams ?"

Guru => " The attempt reminds me of a story by English Physicist Arthur Eddington. if we release some monkeys to a room full of Type writers , perhaps they might write a book. In the future , without necessity of writing the +2 exam , all of the guys in india will attempt IIT - JEE.
We are unleashing more than one million monkeys. Some 2000 of them will easily come to the top by sheer guess in the objective type exams"
