WHICH EXAM DID YOU PASS

WHICH EXAM DID YOU PASS?

It's a great feeling to pass an exam. It tells everyone else that you know something. Before that, only you knew that you knew. Exams are proof of knowledge, but not proof of what you know. The true test of what you know comes after the exam.

Many people prepare well for exams. But have no idea how to use what they know. There are too many farmers looking for jobs than farms. and too many writers looking for jobs than writing. And too many MBAs looking for jobs than starting a business.  Passing exams is a great thing. But it is the use of what you know that is the real benefit. Which exam did you pass; knowledge or use?
