In today’s world being academically weak is a curse?

This is a very often question which strikes in those students who are academically weak.

In today’s world of intellectuals and with a Tiff competition among each other weak students somewhere has lost an opportunity to get ahead. They are just dominated by intelligent sections of the society


If we analysis the ‘cons’ of being an academically weak ten its really a curse.An average student of 40%-45% stands nowhere according to the education policies of various universities.For ex if we take our own Delhi University to get into the good college a student should at least get 95%+ to get into the best known course or course of one's interest.

Getting 95%+ in 12th is obviously not a child’s play.Every student can’t have same level of intelligence or grasping power.

In the end students with average%or I should say below average stands nowhere,they end up taking admissions in correspondence or sometimes students gets so depressed that they end up taking their precious lives


There are times when seats are vacant in various institutes and people there just rudely say No to weak students,all this results in negative thought process of a children ,it results in a thought process of that only people with grey cells are respected in the society,weak people have no standing.


Sometimes, Students tend to feel so neglected n they start underestimating themselves wen they have to face such a rough n dry behavior of various institutes.And all this frustrations land up in personal lives too,parent’s taunts, their scoldings all this makes a person feels soo suffocated and it starts giving a feeling of killing oneself.


Parents too play a crucial role in all this scenario of academics.Their support to a child is a pillar.If they compare their children with other intelligent and talented children than a weak student will always feel degraded or demoralized.

They should support there children and understand their potential and they should not criticise them always for doing nil in academics.They should groom them in other best fitted fields,in which a interests of student’s lies. But all this doesn’t mean that they should become carefree towards academics,they should time time help them in there academics also,give them a doze of studying regularly not in stretch but of course in small intervals,they should not burden their children.


These days people don’t realize that everybody has a talent, some students discover that in themselves in a early stage but some can’t they need some time.People low with intellect powers basically are more talented,they have more God gifted qualities.


We are not here against intellects but we are here just emphasising that institutions should be soft in dealing with people who are weak,they should also give them an opportunity to prove themselves,they should be treated as equal, as respect full like other intellects of the society.


At the end I will rap up just by saying that there are huge group of students who are weak and feel this is a curse but I would just like to convey this have some patience and put in some hard work without taking too much pressure .And if possible communicate with parents, that there this attitude will not solve the purpose, rather its very depressing n demoralizing.

So take a chill pill and take a break from all the taunts n put in your hard work again with same enthusiasm n zeal n zest.

Life is all about ups n downs but we have to bounce higher n prove that we are very strong.:-):-).

  3. hey gauri....good one...i donno where the world is headed with ever increasin cut offs. while readin i was transported back to my school n college days where i myself hav experiencd all of this. you made some real good points. If i were to find flaws, it wud only be the slight grammatical mistakes here n there which i am sure u wil iron out in due course. Also changing the title to start wid 'IS' would make the question u want to ask in a better way n giv tht questn mark sign at the end of d title the killer punch. You can write gud stuff. Lookin fwd to more 4m i dear...

  7. *friends*? already :O

    back to the topic. yes sandeep pointed out the grammar mistakes, i think i will skip the GRAMMAR and SPELLINGS mistake because:

    1) mines is not very good either
    2) if i worry about it i will skip the main point of the post.

    so sandeep is the editor in charge too :)

    hmm I have always been an average child, 74 % is so constant in my educational career and i have done fine in my professional exams, ALhamdolilah. while i have seen extra ordinary people failing them constantly. Although I am a thorough extremist I believe that atleast education is a field which reuired normalcy. why i scored low? because i could never CRAM all which is written in the book, i cant learn word-to-word whatever used to be scattered on the lifeless pages of text books! I used to read, grasp, understand and move ahead.

    I am an awesome teacher now, succesful. and earning. just because i have grip on vital concepts.

    and below average students? you cant judge students/people's intellect by the marks they get. believe you me, i have seen incredibly amazing people with low marks just because they cant cram/rattafying! the thing is our educational systems, india or pakistan, is not good enough to check student's ability. they only gaudge the memory! will you fall prey to it while judging people? I, No. Never.

    just as the example of Elbert Einstin has been quoted above, its like it. even if someone's not very exceptional at studies they might be in something else :) tare zameen per, anyone? :)
