National Exam is a test in the end of the study at junior or senior high school. This test is used to determine the students pass or not after studying three years. It always makes pro and contra. For group of pro the test, it is waited by students, teachers, headmasters and all elements of education.
However, for the contra, it just kills the students' ability. The students who learned for three years, are just justified by three or four lessons/ subjects. They are English, Mathematics, Indonesian and Science. If the marks of those lessons don't be gotten as the target, the students must not pass. They are failure. They are sad. Their parents are also shy.
In my opinion, the national exam test is not only fine but also bad. May be the readers will think I am a foolish man. I don't mind you think that. However, this is my explanation. I say national exam test is fine. It is used by government, especially Department of Education and Culture, to know the ability of the students in studying the materials when they studied at school. It is also used to mark the schools success in teaching and learning process and also to map the programs of education later in the future. It is used to enter the higher stage of education. Without it, the schools will have difficulties to check up the students' ability to enter the higher stage schools.
Beside the good opinion in national exam test, it is also bad. Because the national exam test is used to enter the higher schools and to mark the schools success in teaching and learning process, the students and the schools join to cheat. The students cheat to get good marks and they can use it to get good schools. If they don't cheat, they think they will be failure. If they don't succeed, they will be shy. Their parents are also shy. Their teachers are too.
The schools also do like their students. The teachers of the schools give the answers to their students. They want their students pass the UN exam. They need their students can get good marks. If it is done, the schools and the teachers will be said success. The schools' rank increase. The students are happy. The parents are too. The students can get good schools in the future. Do you want to make it? I hope all of the teachers, the headmasters and all elements of educations don't have the same idea as mine in bad opinion. Do you want to be said success in your life but you do it by cheating?
I hope the students can succeed in doing UN test. Please, don't cheat in your life. You will get goodness. Pray to the God everyday. Study hard to face the test. And don't forget to get pray from your parents. This is the quotation about success from Joseph Addison. If you wish success in life, make presreverance your bosom friend, experience your wise conselor, caution your elder brother, and hope your guardian genius. Thanks and see you in the next success.***
