▶ Your Answer : | Some people say that it is better to study
general subjects than specific careers. However, generally speaking, I believe
that universities and high schools should teach students about specific careers
in place of general subjects.
To begin with, studying specific fields
helps the students get jobs much easier. Since the students studied some
special careers, they are more likely to know what they want to become or where
they want to work. Also, they are more professional. For example, according to
a study conducted by Seoul National University in Korea, ten people of Group A
which majored in a certain career, was much faster at getting jobs than ten
people of Group B who studied a broader and a more general career. Group B was
having a hard time figuring out special fields that they were good at. This
clearly shows that it is more convenient to learn a more detailed topic than a
general one.
In addition, it boosts the interest of
students in studying. There are many students who are not interested in
studying, simply because they do not find it interesting for them. Studying
specifically about certain topics will help them to find their talents or
interests. For example, I can recall that when I took art class, the teacher
offered to teach me more about painting after school. I thought I was not very
good at art, but as she taught me more detailed and harder techniques, I found
out that I love arts. This made me realize that it is very important to know
well what you are studying in order to fully grasp your ability. I would be the
first one to admit that learning general subjects helps students find what they
are interested in. However, it does not provide an environment
where students can focus on one subject. Therefore, I think that studying more detailed subjects encourage students to know what they really enjoy learning.
As a way of conclusion, based on the
arguments explained above, I am of the opinion that as schools should prepare students for their future in a bigger society, it is much more beneficial
for them to teach about detailed subjects than general topics. |
