Topic 1 :
People attend college or university for many different reasons (for example, new experiences, career preparation, increased knowledge). Why do you think people attend college or university? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
==========================
There are a lot of reasons to attend college or university. They attend college to get new experiences, to get good jobs or to increase knowledge. But getting good jobs is more important than any other ones described above.
After economy crisis in Korea, it is more difficult to get a good job. Newspapers and TV news say about the difficulties of getting job and unemployment rate. Many of the college graduates can not find their jobs. They have to wait some period of time to get their jobs.
Company needs staffs with good abilities and selects the candidates as its staffs. Because of the difficulties in getting jobs, it usually chooses only a few candidates who have excellent abilities.
Increasing knowledge and new experience is important, but getting a good job is more important. In other words, preparing to get a good job is increasing knowledge and having many experiences.
===================
Today I bought your book to prepare TOEFL and studied "Introduction".
I decide to follow what you said in your book. Above is the result of following your advice. This is my first essay. (Sorry, you said don't show the first essay to others) I suppose the next one will be better.
I graduated an university 6 years ago and decided to go abroad to study in a graduate school only 2 weeks ago. I'm worry about Listening and Writing because I don't have enough time to prepare TOEFL and GRE.
Please guide me to get good score in TWE.
Good luck.
