Band 7

Some systems require students to specialize in a limited range of subjects from the age of fifteen. Other systems require students to study a wide range of subjects until they leave school. What are the benefits of these two education systems and which is better?

In some high schools,
students
 are demanded to study a range of specific related
subjects
 after a certain grade.
On the other hand
, other schools don'
t
 regard
this
 as a necessity and
students
 study the same general
subjects
 without the need to specialize later on.There are plenty of reasons to support and criticize both systems. I will discuss both views and provide my opinion towards the end of my essay. The main reason why some schools require a general area of studies is to make sure that when a student graduates he or she is knowledgeable in all
subjects
 and
therefore
 is better prepared for higher education.
However
, what
this
system
 lacks is practicality; general
knowledge
 of a wide array of topics isn'
t
 going to get you far in life. Being well-informed isn'
t
 gonna benefit you in the future unless you specialize in a college or a university. The latter
system
 provides a solution to
this
 problem.
Instead
 of studying the same
subjects
 in your
last
 couple of years acquiring higher
knowledge
 which is most likely not in the least beneficial later on,
students
 can enrol in specific areas of study.
This
 is very helpful since
students
 will be more prepared and familiar especially if they decide to enrol in a college or university. A common argument brought against
this
system
 is the lack of other aspects of
knowledge
 if a student ignores other
subjects
 at an early age.
This
 is true but not the case here since 2 or 3 years won'
t
 largely affect someone's general
knowledge
. In conclusion, both systems have their pros and cons,but,in my opinion,a
system
 with a more limited range of
subjects
 at a higher grade is definitely better at preparing
students
 for life.
