Examination
To examine somebody or something is to inspect it closely, hence an examination is a detailed inspection or analysis of an object or person.In an
academic or professional context, examinations (or exams for short) are tests which aim to determine the ability of a student or a prospective practitioner. Exams are usually written tests, although some may be practical or have practical components, and vary greatly in structure, content and difficulty depending on the subject, the age group of the tested persons and the profession. A person who passes an examination receives a
diploma, a driving or professional licence, depending on the examination's objectives.
