Oh, my friend, are you pleased with your country's higher education? Nowadays, finding a good job is hard for a college student, the income from job is lesser than the payout for studying. what about you? Do you feel any stress?

Everyoen knows that having a higher education can help to lead a better life. To the country, if all the citizen can have higher education, it will help the country have more power in the world competition. So the country call the young people spend more time in the education. But to the young like us, we do not think it is all good for us. If all the young have that education, we have no advantage in the society, now even if we have a master degree, we can not make sure to have a good job with high salary. if the situation keep go on, we have to spend half of our life in the school, while can not make enough money to cover the spend of our education. Things should have a balance.

Yes, that's very right what you said. How to balance the higher education and good job, or good life? How to deal with the personal and the country?

Yes, I am not confident of education in my country. The good and excellent educators are leaving my country and what is left are the ones who have to choice just to earn for a living. If given the chance, I will take an education in big cities that are in first world countries. I have big dreams and it may sound stupid to my friends but if we see big companies, they consider where you got your education to hire you in their company.

Yes, we have to choice to earn for a living. if the education cann't sustain the intent, I think it is failing. Now, the college student cann't be break-even, that is the key problem.

Hello dear ngf. I think that it is a good thing that the higher education in China is greatly improved with more and more chances given to those who would like to go to college for further education to learn more skill before they step into the big society for their first job. It is good that there are a lot of vocational colleges for people to learn more skillful and practical knowledge, which is a must for them to find a good and decent job that pays them well. Yeah, it is a great pressure for not only college students but also for those who are working at their posts already. They need to work hard and what is the most important thing for them to do is to always upgrade their current knowledge every now and then so that they would not get abandoned from their work posts. To go to college is a way of starting one's life in a better way in life. Though the education fee is high, it is still worth it if you think about the benefit that you can get from it in the long run. Knowledge you have mastered will never be stolen away from you, which is different from our personal property. You will lose it or have it stolen, but knowledge is always yours, enabling you to find a good job that supports your life. Thanks.

if the student does not take the responsiblities of trying to get married and start a family then this would make college still hard but more possible I have been to college for couple of years and fnished my education because I got stationed in a local base and lived on base and did not have to buy food and clothes..but it still was not easy as I had my job inthe Air Forcke.(which allowed me a lot of thiem to study")but even with this it was hard to finish as there was always a distracionsl..you have to focus on your goals..but adding more resposibilities to your burden is not helping.. Go for couple of years and join the Merchan Marine or reserves and learn and earn.

I have graduated from a college, have studied for 20 years, then I found my income from job is lesser than my payout for tuition. I am disappointed I am still a popular citizen and struggle for living...

i do like the system of higher education here in the Philippines,that is why foreigner like indian, korean etc came here to study. the only thing is that there is a need for good mentors in this level to really show your true potential, another thing is that the minimum wage here is quite small, so you will work long years before you break-even you payouts in your education. but as we all know education is priceless.

Hi nanguofong.The name of my country is bangladesh.You all know this country as a under developing and a poor country.The education system of this country is not good enough for all students of bangladesh.We are a poor country for this reason every student axpect education loan for higher education from Govt.But we have not enough public university.we need lots of public university because we are a highly populated country.For the shortage of public university,some greedy business men of our country build some low level private university and offer the students some subjects which has no value.Thats why most of the students dont get job after complete theit higher education.I am not saying that all the bangladeshi private university is bad but most them are not inthe standard level.So friend as a answer of your question,my answer is I am not happy with my country education system.And I DO FELL STRESS

As a developing country, I know your problem. but in our country, the public university is widest and popular, it is easy to go to university, even more higher education, then the problem is lack of job for the college students, and less income.

i have mixed reaction for this. for some educations I am happy. But in some cases the sharges are very much. so only rich can afford so. like MBA from good colleges. only very rich can afford so. not only talent will suffice. with many more private colleges engineering etc are becoming more costly.

Yes, many colleges have becom the wealthy's colleges, the poor only could look. that's not equitable. what's more, the poor cost much money for studying, but get less income from job because of no powerful backer.
