Your friend has written to you asking for your advice on whether to study marketing or information technology at a college in Australia. Write a letter to her. In your letter, • Ask her about the college • Give her suggestions • Explain your reasons

Dear Frank, Hi! How are things? Congrats! Great to hear you’ve been offered a place at the college and in Australia! Sure, I can give you some advice on choosing between marketing and IT. First of all, do you know anything about the college’s reputation when it comes to both these courses? If they’re famous for one or the other,
then
that should be a big factor in choosing, I guess. To be honest, I don’t really know much about marketing. I’m hardly a specialist there and can’t really say much about it. But, as you know, I’m an IT graduate myself and since leaving college, I can tell you, I’ve had loads of attractive job offers. So, I really recommend IT. Of course, technology is rapidly advancing with new, life-changing, developments happening all the time. I’m sure that you’ll have a lot more career choices and offers after you graduate. I hope you make a wise and happy choice. Please let me know how it works out. Good luck Harpal
