Young people today are better qualified than they were in the past. Some people argue that this is because competition for jobs is greater than it used to be. Other say that people only continued their education because the opportunities exist for them to do so. Discuss both points of view and give your own opinion.

It is undoubtedly that nowadays children have much more knowledge and skills

they used to have. Some people believe that

this

is owing to an increase in competition for applying

this

fact. It seems to me there should be

On the contrary

, other people argued that qualification became far greater since people have much more time after graduation, which can be devoted to

further

education. What is more, you are provided many different sources of useful information

such

as the Internet or scientific books and magazines, so you are able to choose what you need.

This

fact allows people to concentrate on the specific area in order to rapidly master

this

question.

However

, I am confident that one ought to improve their skills to maintain equal balance between standards of studying and

job

requirements.
