Best of FIVE!!!

"Best of FIVE "Well that's the slogan the most of the school students are saying now..

These 11 days of January 2010 has seen a lot of teen suicide cases and most of them as per various sources are due to exam pressure..

We thought after all this the education ministry would look into the type of syllabus and try to make it more interesting...but i think our dear ministry had some other plans..so what do they do...
they plan to introduce best of 5 system for 10th std board exams..where in the students have a chance to omit one subject from their syllabus of 6 subjects..now if you ask me..i really don't understand the logic behind this..

As per them this will help reduce stress and fear about tough subjects and students will be able to attempt exams without any pressure also.Oh ya forgot to tell you the main thing ,the ministry also i guess assumes that by introducing this system they will curb the suicide rate in teens..

My first reaction was WTF...what are they trying to do...

I mean are we trying to build a future wherein students will grow and face the tough world or are we making them into people who will run away from pressure and stress?

By bowing down in front of such things are we indirectly inviting more trouble in future?

I am sure there might be better ways to see to it that the stress on students are reduced...but i am sure this is not the right one
