Murray believes that some people should not even go to college. People, in a sense, get pressured by either family or friends to go to college. In turn, some of these people should not be in college wasting space of someone who could potentially have taken their spot. Murray sees the liberal arts education as simply learning the basics of the work force. He shows that if you have not learned the typical basics in high school, you should not be trying to go to
She soon realized that they had little in common to talk about. When Talking about going back home Rita talked said, “It was confusing to come home and see people thinking that you’re not doing what they are doing, which meant you would be rejecting them. The essay is explaining that education without a doubt is life changing. While attempting to better their lives students go through life changing
I wonder what percentage of those students who didn’t get accepted withdrew the opportunity themselves because they couldn’t afford it once they got accepted. There can be so many reason why the school doesn’t accept 10K students a semester; by the way who wants to learn with another 1,000 students in the classroom. Beres doesn’t take the time to elaborate on different factors that come with college admission but instead attacks the College Board for no apparent reason. He has a valid claim that yes students’ needs to be given the chance, but lacks the supporting warrants he could have made. Instead of bashing the College Board about the common app he could have made a valid case by questioning the rising of college tuition which is a main factor that students aren’t
Options like going without a book are not sufficient, because no amount of note taking can accurately replace in class learning with the book.

In “Generation R”, Peck writes in a situation about the thought of new generation. Some instances show that young adults are not ready to face their independent lives. Jean Twenge, an associate professor of psychology, is found that young people who graduated from high school dislike the idea of work for work’s sake, and expect jobs and career to be tailored to their interests and lifestyle. They also have very high material expectations, and believe financial success is extremely important. Twenge says, “There’s this idea that, ‘Yeah, I don’t want to work, but I’m still going to get all the stuff I want” (Peck 303).
It also burdens colleges with providing preparation that should have taken place earlier. (Bauerlein) Bauerlein takes a dig at teachers for not preparing their students well enough to be successful in their next step in life, college. Because of the bad preparation teachers give the students, when they are ready to go to college they are bound to take remedial classes because if they take normal courses they will most likely fail them. It is a teacher’s duty to prepare the student for his future. It is the schools responsibility to be able to provide good enough teachers, who can prepare these students.
“By tying grades to money, we give students incentives not to take risks” (Vogel, 392) that stop them from choosing challenging courses in college. Students find easier courses through word of mouth or websites that previous students rate their professor in. I always ask people who previously took the course I am interested in whether or not I have a chance of passing the course with a C or higher. Students are afraid of putting their grade point average at risk because the grade point average is a component of the application process that helps colleges decide who to accept. .
A lot of young people would love to go on to university but the fees and the debt that they are left are a deterrent and so they dot want to go on to further education. The concern of fees means that some who have the potential and dream to achieve are not, because they don’t have the finances to do so. Young people also highlighted not feeling safe in their area and postcode wars as a huge concern. The rivalry between different areas means that if you’re from area A and go to area at risk of being in conflict. This means that leaving their area isn’t safe but then being in their area also doesn’t make them feel safe because of the rivalry between estates within the area, as well as the high levels of crime that take place.
Immigration Must Stop Families. Heartbroken. Immigration services are separating and destroying families. Statistics from Wikipedia show that 90% of children get taken away from either their mom or dad, the child does bad, or even worse in school.
