The evaluation of students depends on each teacher and each school, and at the same time evaluates students according to their abilities and qualities, so there is no common ground for comparison. If based on the results of foreign language certificates, computer science... then the pressure is on students to participate in certification exams... Therefore, organizing a survey will help the school select students. Truly excellent and suitable."
