Some people believe that studying at university or college is the best route to a successful career, while others believe that it is better to get a job straight after school. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Education

plays an important part in

one

's life. Currently, there is a debate going on between two groups of people, where the

first

group thinks that the best path to a successful career is to

study

at university or college after

school

.

On the other hand

, the

second

group believes that it is better to get some jobs right after the

school

. In my opinion,

education

is more important than doing jobs,

hence

after completing

school

,

one

should be admitted into the university or college for

further

study

.

This

essay will discuss both sides of the argument and give detail explanation in support of my view.

Education

is the key to progress and

therefore

,

one

should always give preference to

study

rather than anything else. If we observe carefully, we will see that the most successful people are the ones who are more educated. In fact, we can extend

this

example for countries

also

, where more developed nations are the

one

, where there are more learned people. A recent

study

has proved, that people who opt for higher

education

immediately after completing their

school

, tend to be more successful than the other.

On the other hand

, some people argue that doing some jobs after

school

will give someone real life experience about the work environment. In

this

process, they get to interact with different types of people and culture, which extend their outlook and will certainly help them in the long run.

In addition

, they

also

earn some money, that can be helpful for their higher

education

, as higher

study

is very costly. But there is a hidden danger to

this

. Many young people do not know the value of savings and they may end up losing all of their hard earned money on friends and alcohols.

Moreover

, some people are consumed by the greed and continue earning money and give up the higher

education

for good. A recent survey has shown that among the people who took a job after

school

, thirty percent of them give up the ambition of acquiring higher degree. To summarize, I think there are some short time benefits, if someone chooses to do some jobs immediately after completing

school

. But, in order to achieve long term sustainable benefits, everyone has to give priority to higher

education

.
