IAS Officer Shares His Class 10 Marksheet On Twitter, People Conclude 'Marks Don't Matter'
Anything below 90%, as ridiculous as it may sound, is considered average. Is this what education is for, to senselessly compete for a good score?
Martin Luther King Jr once said, "Intelligence plus character-that is the goal of true education." But does his saying stand true considering how our education system works? Throughout our school and college life, we've been told that marks are the true measure of one's education.
Anything below 90%, as ridiculous as it may sound, is considered average. Is this what education is for, to senselessly compete for a good score?

All I have to say here is that Marks doesn't matter at all simply.
You can be an IAS no matter your grades, but how come you get selected in JKSSB exams if you are not a topper or passed as average in your academics.

¡°Bharuch Collector Tushar Sumera, while sharing his class 10th marksheet, wrote that he got only passing marks in class 10th. He got 35 marks in English, 36 in maths and 38 in science out of his 100. Not only in the whole village but in that school it was said that he cannot do anything,¡± read the caption.
Earlier, IAS officer Nitin Sangwan, had taken to Twitter to share his old Class 12 CBSE mark sheet from 2002.
He had scored 24 in Chemistry - just one point above the passing marks.
Sangwan shared his average or poor grades to send out the message that marks alone do not determine the course of life or what you can achieve.
Taking to social media, the Deputy Municipal Commissioner of Amdavad Municipal Corporation and the CEO of Smart City, Ahmedabad said, "In my 12th exams, I got 24 marks in Chemistry - just 1 mark above passing marks. But that didn't decide what I wanted from my life."
He further said, "Don't bog down kids with the burden of marks. Life is much more than board results. Let results be an opportunity for introspection & not for criticism."
