What are the basic differences between the tests given by us in our student life and professional career and the tests imposed on us by God according to the holy book (Qur'an) of Islam?

The tests designed by us to assess our understanding or qualification during student life and in professional career are significantly faulty, causing injustice and discrimination to us. Why?

1. There is no tool to judge before the test as to whether the candidates have received equal privileges
2. People have differences in their physical and intellectual capability for the tests due to genetic and environmental factors
3. The assessment tools might also be imperfect and so may not reflect the actual accomplishment at the end.
4. Those who assess the tests might be biased, prone to mistakes or do not fit for the evaluation.
What does the Qur'an say about the God's tests for human beings to ensure 100% justice:
1. People are being tested or they are accountable for their actions based on the capability given and circumstance applicable to each individual. In other words, tests for an intellectually or physically disabled or a poor person would be much easier than a fully healthy or a rich person.
2. Tests can widely vary in terms of category or intensity depending on the individuals of different genetic and acquired capability at different stages of life
3. People who are eager to find the right pathway from the bottom of their hearts are ultimately guided by God by enabling them to learn and follow the instructions of His book, while those who ignore it deliberately and intend to follow their own desires are allowed by God to stay in their own ways which consequently look fair to them. This strategy was seemingly designed by God to ensure the clear-cut difference in terms of objectives and actions between these two groups of people.
4. The assessment tools which were elaborated in Qur'an were designed by God to see who constantly and completely follow His instructions and thus purify their souls. Those comprise submitting to God by solely worshiping Him in His prescribed ways, ensuring full justice ( financially and with behaviors) to parents, family members, relatives, needy and helpless people, maintaining proper financial dealings,and controlling our sight, speech and thoughts
5. Every thought and action of every individual is being recorded and will be revealed and witnessed on the Day of Judgement as solid proofs, after the entire human beings are regenerated and gathered in the open ground with the subsequent and surprise appearance of God Who will act as the sole Supreme Judge
