Pursuit of Law and Order

by A.P. Durai

My memory was good and during examinations, the relevant pages in the books used to appear in my mind’s eye, and I used to take advantage of it. This method did not promote original thinking and I developed my own ability to think only after leaving college. This is perhaps a reflection on our educational system, which rewarded a student who had a good memory, and could reproduce in examinations what was in the text books.
