In schools and universities, girls tend to choose arts while boys like science. What are the reasons for this trend and do you think this tendency should be changed?

It is true that the majority of young males decide to
study
science while females prefer arts in schools all over the world. Finding the reasons for
this
phenomenon is important for the educators in vocational classes to give a reasonable advice to students. There are many factors for boys and girls choosing different subjects.
Firstly
, gender-specific personalities and competence leads to the courses students wish to
study
. In fact, since female students are more
skillful
having or showing knowledge and skill and aptitude
skilful
, creative and more patient, they are attracted to art subjects
such
as languages or literature, while males share
common interest
Suggestion
a common interest
in several fields that require considerable analytical abilities to excel at, like maths or engineering.
Secondly
, in order to be fit in society with
common conception
Suggestion
a common conception
common conceptions
about jobs and genders, many students do not dare to choose subjects that they really interested in.
For example
,
although
some young males, caring and thoughtful, are fond of working as a nurse, they choose another job as people think true men will not do nursing. Students should have
freedom
Suggestion
the freedom
to choose what they want to
study
regardless of genders.
First
, if students are forced to
enroll
register formally as a participant or member

would not provide a quality employee for the
work force
the force of workers available
workforce
when he graduates.
In addition
, by choosing a suitable subject to
study
, students can best cultivate their skills and abilities, which inspires them in pursuing their goal.
As a result
, they would be not only successful in
learning process

the learning process

also
satisfied as they can do what they want to. In conclusion, beside the distinct characteristic and competence between genders, social misconception
also
has an effect on choosing a specific

.
This
should be reconsidered to give students freedom to learn what they really want.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
