Competition is good actually. But in our educational systems with that competition, most of the people decide the talents of the person. But that competition cannot actually measure talents of a person because various people are talented for various things. So basically with the marks of the exam competition, we can't judge anyone.

A healthy competition is must needed one.It keeps us motivated to perform well.Through competitions we can get to know our strength and weakness. We can improvise our self with a good competition.Without competition life will be boring.

Well said Joker, In our education system instead of having healthy competition we have unhealthy comparison.

True Shana, competition help us to understand where we stand, also help us to get know our strength and weakness.
