'TIIE FINEST METAL IIAS TO GO TIIROUGII THE HOTTEST FIRE'

You may know the above cited proverb which means that even the 'Gold' has to go through the fire to prove its purity. If we apply the same maxim to the entrance tests the students have to face, we can say that the  entrance tests are not burden to the students. On the other hand they are

opportunities for students to prove their quality. Entrance tests have their own importance for students and ensuring the quality ofthe respective courses.
I, here, strongly discard the belief put in the view section that the entrance tests are burden to the students. On the other hand I take it as an opportunity for the students to seek admissions in top institutes and to excel. Ifa studentwishes to get admission inrecoglized governmentinstitutes such as 11T, 11M or other premier private schools, he has to face the entrances conducted by the respective institutes. He Will get the opportunity to study in such institutes only on the basis ofhis ability not on the basis of his family status or wealth. So, how can we say that the entrance tests are burden? These tests are the only channel to select the eligible and the most efficient students for the respective courses?
No doubt there is always a sort of burden of study and parents' expectations but it should be rather taken positively. The students should remember that we can put our best efforts only under some pressure. Here the parents need to work as counselors not as dictators. One more reason  to take entrance tests as burden is that there is a cut throat competition for admission and failures may lead to fatalities like suicides ofthe students. But keep in mind ' Survival ofthe Fittest' is a rule ofthe nature, so, the competition is obvious. Inevitably we have to face it. Ifwe are dedicated to our aim, then it should not be a burden. The failure should not be taken as an end ofthe career. To avoid such would be dangers some counseling sessions should be organized. When a student is determined to reach his goal a mere entrance test cannot stop him from moving forward.
