Debate: Are GMAT, GRE, IELTS, IIT-JEE, IAS, ICA, SAT, CLAT, AIEEE, TOEFL, GATE test your intelligence or whether you've mastered the format of exams?

It was a worth debate.

One opinion was, it's just a format. Otherwise, lot of coaching would not have been there.
Another opinion was, even mastering the format also requires intelligence, as those who practice more and master it crack the exams well.....

One genius said, "I cracked the exams, but, didn't last as a IAS cadre, as corruption  overshadowed our job. I left it after few years in Services."

One CLAT fellow said, it's a format, for those, who have practicing parents and grandparents and who have heard the terminology since early child hood.

Many of my friends scored 100% in GRE, and TOEFL, TEL even I scored higher, and I felt it's a format that rules for 5 years, 3 years, or 1 year or the time the exam committee decides.

I know, about MAT, SNAP and such Management entrance tests, they are having routine questions.

Even Board Exams like SSC, HSC also have format. Many start practicing 2 years in advance, any how left to the individual minds, how they perceive it.

Debate continued.
Due to millions of students appearing, it seems to be the best pattern at present, was conclusion, the student, who put this point was the winner. 

coming more.
