It is true
that a number of people who graduated from high school go to university or
college rather than work. Although people who graduated from university gain
more knowledge and improve their final educational background, I agree with the
opinion that finding a job right after high school is better way to succeed. On the one hand, some people argue that entering university or college is
better way to make a successful job. According to them, companies are favorable
to highly educated people in today’s society. Also, highly paid careers such as
doctor, nurse, and lawyers are all careers that require university degree. For
instance, statistics showed that due to the lack of jobs in Korea, many people
in the country are going to college to obtain better education and better
grades to have jobs. However, despite the wonderful specifications, the door to
employment is very narrow, so going to college can be a waste of money and
time. On the other hand, others argue that it costs a lot of money to go to university or
college. To be specific, if you go to college, you have to pay tuition for two
years and for four years at university. Additionally, it costs money not only to pay for the tuition at
university, but also to buy the books and supplies. Moreover, going to
university or college is a waste of time. To be precise, these days many people
take the civil service exams rather than go to college because the country does
not have enough jobs for all of the new graduates even if they have great background.
As an example, one of my friends did not enter college while others did. She
said going to college is a waste of money and time. This is because many people
will eventually take the civil service exam even though they graduate college,
and the civil service exam does not count their degree.
In conclusion, both views have their strong points. However, in my opinion, the latter is more convincing: the best means to obtain successful
career is going to university or college because going to
university or college is a waste of time and money. |
