As far as I am concerned, studies are crucial today in order
to be able to get a decent job. Since we were youths we have been told that if
we ever want to get a job and have a reasonable pay check, we should work and
study hard throughout our lives in order to succeed, but does it matter what we
learn during our school years? Will it change our future?
Nowadays children in most schools around the world have all
kind of subjects going from the humanities such as history and literature, to
the scientific side; mathematics and the three sciences. In other schools, kids
can study the subjects which will help them for their degree at the university. In
my opinion, children at elementary primary school until 6th grade should study
a bit of everything as that would enrich their cultural knowledge. Nevertheless,
I also believe that high school students pre-college should focus and only
study what they need for university as that is what they are going to require
throughout their entire lives and they will know the basic things from school.
I believe that most people would agree with me when I say
that some subjects are not more important than others. Most individuals think
that it does not matter what you study as we need people for all kinds of jobs;
from literature teachers to doctors and both careers are as important because
without teachers there would not be any doctors and without doctors people
would die from illnesses.
Therefore, in my opinion, children should know a bit of all
and then study in more depth for their specific degrees as by doing so, it will
make an enormous difference in their future lives and jobs.
