It is neither possible nor useful to provide university places for a high portion of young people. To what extend do you agree or disagree?

Some people state that providing university places for a large number of young people is both impossible and useless. After explicating
this
argument, I agree with it because of the following reasons.
First
and foremost, a degree from a top-tier academic institution is no longer a guarantee for a job, even in the knowledge-based society. A high majority of students decide not to attend college, but work right after graduating since hands-on experience and interpersonal skills via working are somehow more valuable and beneficial.
Additionally
, after years in the real work environment, their skills are sharpened, minds are broadened, and their expertise is famous through challenging tasks they underwent. Bill Gates,
for instance
, the founder of Microsoft organization, chose to drop out of school, set up Microsoft, and is recently recruiting computer prodigies for his company.
On the other hand
, only deserved and potential students are able to attend college since its resources is not limited and they should be suitably and reasonably allocated to someone who can use them best. In fact, only academically talented students who already have a good grasp of subjects they are learning will be capable of handling the heavy workload and pressure at university as well as rarely find themselves being out of their depth. In Vietnam, the demand for acquiring knowledge and information has never ceased to grow, but it
also
leads to a high drop-out tertiary education since most students are easily bombarded with new knowledge, fall behind, and usually end up with dropping out.
Therefore
, the acquisition of new knowledge is a key to success, and it should be only offered to academic high-flyers. To summarize, I agree with the aforementioned idea that placing higher education for a high majority of students is better because of the above-mentioned opinions.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
