トピ；In some courses, there are numerous exams throughout the course, while in other courses there is only one final exam. Discuss the advantages of each type of course. Then indicate which you prefer and why.
In my point of view, I prefer to choose courses there is only one final exam. There are a lot of opinion for me to for or against this topic. I want to mention my opinion in the following reasons.
First of all, I want to argue the advantages of each type of courses. Talk about course which offers numerous exams. I think the only advantage is that there is no need for most students to worry about their academic record, because it will not be decided for just only one test. Even they have bad tests scores for their tests once or twice, there is still a lot of chance for them to have good scores in later tests because of there are numerous exams throughout the course. On the other hand, numerous exams means they have to use much time for upcoming tests' preparation. It must be arduous for them. Next, talk about couse which offers only one final exam. It will be helpful for many students because there is only one test. Because of just one exam, students can spend more time on different subject and when the test schedule is close, they just focus on the test and study a lot then do their best effort in the test, and finish it. There is no need for students to study everyday.
Some people may say they will feel a lot of pressure because only one final exam will decide their academic record. However, in my point of view, take numerous exams will make you feel more pressure. When I was still a university student, I have many subjects for my graduation. And there is a subject, I remember it was discrete mathematics, I have to take a little check test per every lecture. It was really embarrassing to me because I have to study every week. Sometimes I just forgot about the upcoming little check test and had bad scores. This made me feel a lot of pressure because I have to prepare for the upcoming test everyweeks. Through this kind of experience, I definitely want to choose the courses which offer only one final exam.
In addition to this, I think only one final exam can also easy teachers' daily work. If teachers have to make numerous exams, it must be a big burden for them. Instead of making numerous exam papers, many teachers at universities, I mean professors should spend more time on their own research. Its professors duty to make a good lecture, but good lecture not depends on the number of the test, it depends on the quality of the test. It's better for professors to improve the quality of test than increase the number of tests.
In conclusion, from what I have mentioned above, although only one final exam will make more students feel nervous, its merits exceed its demerits. And it can not only makes students save their time, but also can save their professors' precious time. In my point of view, I think its better for me to choose courses which offer only one final exam. (518 words)
