　　To Find A Job or to Go On Studying

　　At the end of the fourth year in the university, students are facing two choices: to find a job or to go on studying in a master's degree. Before making up their mind, they have to consider everything carefully.

　　Some students prefer to work upon graduation. Their parents have supported them financially throughout their university years, and now with a bachelor's degree they can easily find a job. They want to be independent of their parents as early as possible. Besides, practical experience seems more important to them than book knowledge. Of course, they are always aware that it is hard to find a satisfactory job with their first academic degree. Other students would rather study towards a master's degree because they think more theory and a higher degree can enable them to do work in an ideal position in future. But the disadvantage of this choice is obvious: they have to spend another three years before they can earn money.

　　I have decided to continue my studies to get a masters' and a doctor's degree. It has always been my dream to be a successful scientist. Money is no problem to me as my parents are quite rich and they will certainly help me when I need money to get married. (212 words)
