Nowadays,a degree cannot earn you a steady income in the marketplace.Even if you are a first class honour's student,you might get into the top companies.That is why parents are constantly debating about their students education.Some prefers them to start working after high school and forget about studies.Since a degree doesn't quarantee them a job,then why bother spending thousands to get a degree.That's their point of view.What do you think?Should students really start working,gain experience,collect money and start a business later on or should they continue studying?

students should go to colleges, not just for the degree,but for improvint yourself. it's not bad to learn more and know more.

I always believe that students should go to college to have their further education after their middle high school. Yes, a degree doesn't definitely promise you a steady income. But without a degree, how would you even get a job.
My brother is going to take his college entrance examination soon and I hope he can do well and be enrolled in a good university.Now I am crossing my fingers for him.

As degrees have become more accessible to people that normally wouldn't have been able to go on a degree it has meant that more people are taking degrees. It also means that people that are not suited to a degree are taking it, of course that wasn't a problem before for the rich as they could just go and do something else, but now with lower classes, and how they may only just be able to afford to go on a degree, are not able to do something else and when their degree fails or they give up they have spent all that money and are not able to move on.

should, it's really needed to go the colleges to study more. degree can't grantee people a good job, it's true, but without degree, most graduate students can't get good jobs. we can image, if you want to apply a job in one of the most largert company, the hire manage will turn down in the CV screen firstly, degree is the necessary condition, right, can we say the degree is not important?
