答案：Need a master degree, or not
Nowadays, most people want to enter graduate school.In fact, this desire has grown considerably in the past few years, Students struggle to pass the graduate school entrance exam, to survive the program, and find a job at the end of it.They read many exam preparation books.They may also attend special"exam preparation"seminars and courses.There are some reasons for such phenomenon.
First is the general perception that a graduate school diploma, a master's degree, is needed for getting a better job.Second is that some students might not be sure what they want to do, and a few more years inside the courtyards of academic seems desirable.
In my opinion, this is not reasonable, I don't deny that a few passed and went on, but the majority failed and finally wiped away their valuable times.So we don't have to study for the master degree.Never forget the old saying: every road leads to Rome!
