In several countries around the world, students take a year off between high school and university in order to travel, work or volunteer. However, in most countries, students go straight to university after graduating. Discuss both approaches and give your opinion about which is better.
These days in many
countries
, pupils take off a year
before starting a university
education
to explore and work
. While
in most countries
, they start their higher education
at university
right after schooling. In this
essay, These paths benefit students
because the first one allows you to find the stream that interests you most and gain valuable experience. At the same time
, the latter point offers you to follow your goal without further
due. In my view, I think that a year
off before starting further
education
is better because it allows you to learn, earn and become a mature individual.
In almost all Asian countries
, students
do not take a year
off between their schooling and university
education
because of the education
systems they are surrounded by, and they have fixed goals that they want to pursue in their tertiary education
. In India, for example
, almost all undergraduates are already aware of what they will study after schooling, which is why they do not waste a lot of time
before entering into Bachelor's or Master's degrees. This
helps them accomplish their graduation earlier. However
, I believe it is better to have a gap between thinking, learning and gaining valuable experience, making them overall
wise students
.
In many Western countries
, most high school students
do not go to university
right after their schooling. They travel to different places to figure out the interest stream they want to pursue. They also
work
at restaurants or Charitable trusts to gain valuable experiences and learn other things. Some people also
work
for money to support themselves with tuition fees. In Canada, it is obvious to see native adolescents working at Macdonalds and restaurants. They are also
seen doing volunteering work
, like collecting donations for Child Care Trust in public places. This
teaches us communication skills and makes us overall
responsible individuals. Taking a year
off allows students
to explore and find their talents, besides
getting valuable work
experience.
In conclusion, a year
off before a university
education
allows students
to travel and work
to find their hidden talents. In contrast
, without taking a year
off, students
can save time
to complete their university
degrees earlier. Taking time
before pursuing higher education
is crucial to finding our interests and skills.Submitted by gauravkalathiya123 on
