How important is it to have an academic goal in life?
Well, let’s see … academic goal in life … I assume that we are talking about the academic degree here and how it is gonna be helpful in our life. The academic credentials gained from having a formal education is likely to help someone to reach the next level on the career ladder. As we know that most institutions rely on those who graduate from reputable university. I’m not saying that that’s the best way to recruit an employee. It’s just the most common way. So, if I am a person whose career relies on my education, then chasing an academic goal should be the top priority. However, if I have the ability to run a successful entrepreneurial business, be my own boss and make loads of money, then a degree is not that important. Well, it’s book smart versus street smart. that kind of thing.

ESSAY 27

Some people say we do not need printed paper newspapers anymore. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Today, people have more sources of information compared to the situation 20 years ago. With the advance of digital technology, there are many channels of media to choose from including newspapers publishers, which now convert to digital content by means of website or apps that can be accessed widely.

By removing the cost of ...

ESSAY 17

Women and men are commonly seen as having different strengths and weaknesses. Is it right to exclude males or females from certain professions because of their gender? Modern time has seen rapid advancement in people’s lifestyles; a situation which is suspected to happen due to progress in technology and globalisation. This has also affected people’s preferences for their career. Instead of being fixated on the traditional career path, modern people tend to explore many new fields and areas where they can follow their dream even to the point which was unimaginable three decades ago. This essay would further analyse the correlation between gender and occupational preference and its future prediction. Women have been considered as inferior to men in terms of physicality and this view may very well have some truth in it. It seems that even the slightest depiction of alternative prehistoric situation where the females hunted for food and slaughtered wild beast will be a cause for ...

As well as making money, business should have social responsibility. To what extent do you agree or disagree? In a developing country such as Indonesia, there are so many ongoing development activities in most of the provinces. These activities can be done by the government-owned companies or the private companies. These companies create lots of revenue and gain considerable profit from their activities, however, most often than not it is only for their own advantage. It is argued that every business should share a certain percentage of their profit to help local citizens develop their economy. I agree with this statement as it can promote a sense of fairness and help to provide better economy which is crucial to improving the quality of life. First of all, it is important to remember that these prestigious companies often create their plants and factories in the middle of the community. Since the factories need to be operated by experts in their fields, local citizens are ra...
