"

National Examination of any year to be a frightening specter for all people, not just student, but
parents, brothers, family. Although fact is not something that should be feared, but should be the concern
ssxzx
of any clutter maintenance national examination year. Did not the first time Indonesia implement national
examination, but only upon the chaos of any year. Whether it's a technical issue or related pros and cons
of national examination. When the government arrested the strong need for the establishment of the
exam, there are actually a lot of things that should be assessed as to whether national examination should
exist or not.

For people who agree, national examination is necessary for students as a requirement to
graduate from a school. People who support the national examination explain that the quality of the
Indonesia education will drop without national examination, so they try to defend the current system.
They also think that national examination can motivate students to study harder.

However there are people who disagree with the opinion. Those who against this national
examination kept in school education say that it doesn't need the national examination because the quality
of education does not just depend on the national examination. Further, the national examination only
measure a small portion of students' competence in specific subjects, and does not measure students'
competence throughout the semester. There is also opinion that the national examination will make the
students depressed and stress. Moreover the quality of education in Indonesia is causing uneven result
national examination inequality between urban areas with advanced education than rural areas with
limited education facilities. On the other hand society is too focused on national examination, if a child gets
bad grades when national examination does not pass, then the students would be abused and would
deprive the students' confidence. In addition to the events that occur every year when it will be
implemented nationwide exam is still chaotic distribution of matter and not timely.

In conclusion, national examination can still be useful as an instrument of evaluate or detect the
level of students' cognitive competence in several subjects, on a national scale. However, is not fair if only
national examination score that judge whether students pass or not. Government should make a
regulation that national examination is not the only requirement for students to graduate. There should be
other requirements added such as students' daily score, behavior, and achievement.
