Many students have to study subjects which they do not like. Some people think this is a complete waste of time. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Education

a possession which never lets the possessor down. It does

in some way or the other. It is due to

this

reason that it is kept at a very high pedestal and only contributes to the widening of the horizon of the possessor. Due to

this

firm fact, it can be said that

education

earned by studying any kind of

subjects

is never ever a waste of time. It only adds up to the total personality of an individual and makes him a matured, understanding and a complete human being.

However

which are liked by the students. Unfortunately, the followers of the

school of thought invariably tend to forget the fact that the thought process of a
