It is argued that memorising facts
is
the most crucial way for success in the education system. Sometimes Suggestion

at all. It depends on the requirements.
Memorising facts can be useful for sure, for succeeding in exams, especially. For example
; if someone is studying a subject for an exam and that subject contains some facts like date of birth of a specific person, then
it would be necessary to memorise
the given date, as there won't
be any other way out, because it can asked in the paper. Hence
, it is useful at times to memorise
required things in education. If not an exam, it can be additions to one
's knowledge as well, which can come handy later in life as well.
Sometimes memorising may not be needed at all, as getting an idea about a thing may be enough, like knowing the basic concepts. For example
; when I was in 12th grade, we had to study Great Expectations novel as part of our English subject course, therefore
, we used to read it only, without memorising it, in order to understand the main message it conveyed. We didn't
memorise
the dates and names of the places. Therefore
, this
shows sometimes one
doesn't
need to memorise
in order to succeed.
In conclusion, it all depends on the needs of various subjects in the educational world. Memorising facts is not necessary, as it is sometimes enough to just get the message, rather than learning it blindly.Submitted by Sohrab Mushtaq on
