▶ Your Answer : Managing how high school students use their time is important because it may help students to shape lives in a better way later in a future campus. With this understanding I believe that it is important for students to spend at least one year working before entering university. This is because it helps students to outperform in university and enjoy a better quality of life. Firstly, allotting time working helps students to perform better in university. Understanding the relationship between courses that students will take in university and the potential role of working experience is crucial to substantiate this view. Normally, in high school students are only devoted to academic sudies aiming to have fine SAT scores. However, it does not act as a critical factor to outstand in university because SAT is a minimum requirement which serves as a tool to evaluate students whether they are qualified to study in university. However, working or internship experiences may influence them to become academically superior students in their desired university as they are more creative compared to the students who do not have working or internship experiences. This is because they have to encounter various problems and tasks they have never dealt with in high school. Most university courses requires students to think outside of the box as it asks about individual one's novel opinion to finish their assignments. In this respect, working before students enter the university has an effect of helping students to perform better in their future university. Second, spending time working enables students to enjoy a better quality of life. Interestingly, a renowned social scientist in South Korea recently published an article claiming that spending time working or participating in internships help students to strengthen social competitiveness. According to the article 62 percent of 200 Korean leading recruiters prefer people who have an experience of working or internships in high school. They show such tendency because they tend to be more flexible. In university, students usually participate in the internship related to their future profession. However, working experiences and internships in high school years are not limited to their future profession as students' dream job changes frequently. However, internships or working experiences which doesn't seem relative help students to work with great flexibility in their future jobs. In the long-run flexible mind-set increase work performance. This is due to the fact that experience from unrelevant area may lead to faster working processes compared to conventional methods. This not only lead to job promotions but also encourages students to ultimately enjoy a better quality of life for later in society. To sum up I believe that it is important for students to spend at least one year working for the following reasons; to perform better in university and to enjoy a better quality of life in future. Consequently, the importance of my view cannot be underestimated due to the reason I have mentioned above. |
