Writing Task 2 (an essay)

Many students take a year off in order to work before they go to college or university. Do you think this has more advantages than disadvantages?

In our present age, in order to succeed in this competitive world, knowledge from school does not suffice, therefore in my opinion, students who continue studying from the school to university get less benefits compared to students who go to travel before going to university.

Firstly, students that continues studying from school to university will only gain theory. Of course, theory is very necessary, but you can't do everything based on theory itself. Experience and theory is needed in the working field. Even so, after graduating, graduates can't accomplish their work properly because the lack of experience in working.

This is where working before going to university benefits. People gain skills and experience, be more familiar with the job they're working. They produce a better quality of output compared to those lack of experience in work. It saves the time and money in training those people going to university without working. Besides, their education is the same as or even higher than those going to university without working.

I summary, i think student should go to travel or getting a job before going to universities. Therefore, they will not only gain basic knowledge, but also experience and skills which are useful for them to get a good job in the future.

Children will understand the concept of money, estimating the risk of spending money on something they will buy in the future.
