Some people think that the best way to succeed in life is to get a university education, while others disagree and say that it is no longer true nowadays. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

It is undeniable that there are different views about the link between the level of academic education and the prosperity of individuals. It is argued by some that having a university degree is a key factor in becoming successful,
however
, others, including myself, believe it would not be necessary these days. On the one hand, it is clear that there would be more opportunities for well-paid jobs for those who have academic qualifications.
For example
, professional careers, like a doctor, engineer, CEO, and CFO would definitely require university degrees.
In addition
, highly qualified individuals take advantage of being respected by the vast majority of the population and have more chances to benefit from government services like purchasing homes and cars by taking loans due to their high salaries.
On the other hand
, those who are against the necessity of continuing education claim that due to technological advances, making money becomes far more straightforward for
people
 through social media and the internet. What I mean is that you tubers and internet users now will be able to prompt
people
 to follow them by posting engrossing and strange videos on YouTube and Instagram, leading to receiving money from
such
 platforms.
Furthermore
,
people
 are born with different talents. In order words, some are capable of making progress in the academy, while others would prefer to flourish their talents and skills, and follow their interests, like becoming actors, artists, musicians, athletes, and so on. In conclusion,
although
people
 are more likely to be more prosperous by acquiring university degrees, personally, I believed there would be various ways of being successful.

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
