Today, we started our practical examinations. Last week, I had gone as an examiner to some other college to conduct their practical examinations. I was quite exasperated since my viva could not go beyond "what experiment are you doing today" or "what is the compound you have just prepared?" Just the title of the experiment or the structure of the compound was enough for me to give 2 marks.
But students in my college are no better.
Whatever happens to all that we teach them? Where does it go?
It is at times like these that I feel I should retire right now.
