You recently recieved a letter from a friend asking for advice about whether to go to college or to try to get a job. You think he/she should get a job. Write a letter to this friend. In your letter - say why he/she would not enjoy going to college - explain why getting a job is a good idea for him/her - suggest types of job that would be suitable for him/her

Dear Ishan, I received your letter yesterday. I am happy to hear that you are putting thoughts to make a decision about your career.
Although
the option of going to college seems exciting, I would suggest you try to get a job. Nowadays, getting into a prestigious college is becoming more and more competitive. With your current grades, I think it would be really difficult to get admission to a public school. Despite being a lucrative option, college would not provide an environment where you would enjoy your hobby of going into solo mountain climbing at a serious level.
Furthermore
, daily assignments and projects will hinder your momentum in exploring wildlife.
However
, if you get a job, you can help your mother to reduce the financial burden on your family. Not only you will get paid time off but, you will
also
get perks that would help you go on a vacation like flight or rental discounts. I know a couple of organizations in town that are hiring freelancing photographers and wildlife explorers for their magazines and other projects. You will really thrive working on those exciting adventures. Let me know what you think about it and need any
further
help in making the decision. Happy to help! Take care, Yatharth
