I am a graduate student now, but I'm confused about my choice, because the job market becoming harder and harder for us(without work experience) to join in in China. so,I don't know it is right or wrong to keep in school for me. Do you face the same question? please tell us your ideas about it.

13 years ago i do have the same question as you :D But with different reason i think. I want to go to college but i don't have money :( Almost all my friends go to college. Then i choose go to work, after 1 year i work. I decide to go to college also, because i have at least money to pay college in part. I took night college. I work from 7 am - 4 pm and then i took college from 5pm - 10 pm. And it is all work ^.^

everyone has this problem , perhaps . i think it's up to your finance . i won't go to school , if i have no coin . while as i can afford , i study on . on the other hand ,i enjoy my life at school . i don't have to struggle with the possibility of starving . i live with a lot of friends , who help me and i help . someone must leave , someone longs the life out , and the others don't move . so , if you don't will to leave for your friends , you'd better not .

I am a graduating student,too!when i face the same problem,my classmate has ever said acturely there is radicall different between finding a job and studying in another further schoole.Because they have their own advantage and disadvantage.If any,you can also choose one very easily in the short time!Therefore,don't waste your time on choosing which one you should!if you have not decided,i suggest you can close your eyes to choose any of them. Have a good luck!

I'm a sophomore in a college in Hangzhou,Zhejiang. It seems that it's kind a choice between experience and knowledge. If i were facing the same trouble with you i would choose to work withouut hesitation. Reason is simple, if you don't go to work, you would never gain work experience. And the situation now in China is clear, more and more graduates continue education after become graduate students, if you join them, when you finish the education, you'll find there're so many people like you applying for the same job, then, the boss will say Experience first again! Best wishes!
