Some university students want to learn about other subjects in addition to their main subjects. Others believe it is more important to give all their time and attention to studying for a qualification. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
An argument has arisen between two groups, the first
one
believes that university students have the right to study a variety of subjects
, while
the second view says that they should concentrate on their main major. In this
report, I will go through both sides of this
conflict, and then
allow me to share my point of view.
To begin
with, studying various subjects
is exciting, helpful, beneficial, and profitable; as a consequence
, many people believe that learners have the right to study whatever they want with their main major. Firstly
, having general knowledge about different fields is necessary. For further
explanation, many managers acknowledge that having basic knowledge about various fields is beneficial, so they usually look for a candidate who studies various subjects
, not only their main major. Secondly
, learning different subjects
is interesting. Many people post on social media that when they learn something new, they feel excited, amazed, and relaxed, and some of them discover a lot of new interesting information.
Although
the points mentioned above are influencing, there are reverse points that hold equal influence. The first one
is that concentrating on one
topic helps to be more productive, creative, and unique. For example
, many successful players, businessmen, and workers such
as Messi, Bill, and Elon paid attention to their main field
; as a result
, they turned into successful, brilliant, and unique characters. Besides
that, paying attention to one
field
helps to dig into it. Many studies show that the learners who studied one
field
only have more information and skills related to that field
compared to those who studied additional subjects
. Also
, these people showed excellent work because they are experts in their field
.
In conclusion, even though some students have the desire to learn about other subjects
, it is more strategic, useful, and beneficial for them to give all their time and attention to studying for a qualification; however
, I completely agree with the second opinion.Submitted by haneenalnetaif on

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples
Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.
Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.
When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.
Linking words for giving examples:
- for example
- for instance
- to illustrate this
- to give a clear example
- such as
- namely
- to illustrate
- take, for example
