What i am looking for in a brand personalli is the logo for one must have an attractive feature capable of catching my attention because it tells me what i am getting. Equally imortant is the motto under the logo. Take for instance a Tofu company has a beautiful logo of a smiling African Child eating Tofu then the motto could be " We set out to make Tofu and ended up making History".

1. Examinations are generally considered an essential part of any education system, as they provide a structured way to evaluate a student's knowledge, skills, and understanding of a particular subject. Exams help to identify areas of strength and weakness, measure a student's performance and progress, and provide feedback for further improvement.

2.   However, it's worth noting that exams are not the only way to evaluate a student's knowledge and skills. Other forms of assessment, such as coursework, projects, and presentations, can also provide valuable insights into a student's abilities. Therefore, it's essential to have a balanced and comprehensive assessment system that incorporates a range of assessment methods to provide a more accurate and holistic picture of a student's performance.
