Higher education, is it so important?

[ccryptopark]

I think there is a lot we can learn about ourselves, society and the way we question things in the world. Higher education might not get us exactly to where they 'intend or plan' but it will lead our curiosity more into things we may have never knew existed

By higher education, you mean studies after normal school?

Hell yeah!

Why is it not important you say? So many billions who are college drop outs? Those are rare species. You can't just drop out and say you will become next Zuckerberg!

Higher education makes you not only qualified for big better jobs, also opens the door for so many girls *wink wink*

High ambitious pretty women wants high qualified self confident people. No matter how handsome you look, how rich you are or anything, quality women loves quality guys

Study, it's enjoyable than looking at your phone screen all day!

Haha great your have bright thinking, of course women today's is know how to look quality men one of the creteria is education because if there nothing high quality education there is  nothing change to get the highest position in the fireld of work.

Yes it is important. Because higher education gives a person an opportunity to succeed in today's global economy.

Only you can answer, depends on what you want from life, some people do not have hight education and have a job of their dream just because they do what they love and if it doesn`need hight education so why should you waste your time? and some people even when they have achieved hight education say i need resume help because they must and its is only reason - to make money
So only you will decide you need it or not and what you gonna do in your life

Yes it is important. Because higher education gives a person an opportunity to succeed in today's global economy.

I agree, Many students nowadays keep complaining after they finish their school because they study the things that they cannot apply in the real life. They've wanted to learn techniques and life hacks but the education system don't allow them to learn that. Higher education will be so effective to the children that wanted to show off their true skills and ability.

I think that education is always very important but the educational situation has drastically changed today.
The amount of knowledge and information is changing much faster today than ever in the past.
That is why formal education become quickly obsolete and employees must constantly learn and accept new information and knowledge.
So, higher education is just first step in ongoing education, not the last like in the past.

Skill is crazy important to have, especially now a days. A higher education is just to get your foot in the door of certain places of employment. Most of what you can learn in college, you can learn on YouTube. To be fair, there are some things you can learn only in a classroom if you're able to get a hands on experience. The great thing about college is you can make connections with people that have connections.

I live away from the USA so having a degree is crazy important if you want to work.

[Johnzky]

Do you really need a Degree these days?
If you had to do it all over would you go to college?

everyone needs to know something there is no connection between Intelligence and their education if you are intelligent you don't need to educate but if you want to live in this world the world demands education that's why it will be important for everyone otherwise I don't think higher education is the only important thing to live your life.

Yeah right since even those people from mountain sides still seeking for education,they wanna learn even that they already have skills to bring family to life yet they are not contented so what more people like us whose living in this new age world to learn more and to adopt with the demand of community

the higher education is everything without this knowledge you don't carry forward your own intelligence into a different dimension for increasing your brain power then you definitely need to study lot more in higher education that's why I am saying this is one of the important training that you need to have in your life.

my general opinion is it is also important but it is not only the important thing to save your life and no one will force you to study in higher education if you don't have interest you cannot do that what is the opinion from my side.

[pavlooster]

Yes you are right but we should consider that almost every top students didn't have that good work now. It is the skills and strategy in life is the most important here and that's what matters. Higher education is important but the strategy in life is the most important part of your life.

Yes, Yes. Actually, it is an underlying problem, like IQ vs. EQ right. The smart brain only can't make your success in this life. You have to master the skill of communication and marketing. On the other hand, I've been in a situation where people kind of tolerate a nervous nerd; they respect him because of his intelligence. In fact, they see him as unique.
IMO, higher education, which is narrow your knowledge, is suitable if you want to specialize. It is necessary and can be benefits to open many opportunities. After all, a graduate degree is joint these days. So if you don't have one, you may lose in the job market.

Ive actually messed up my college degree but I still manage to get a job. The thing is you just gotta be resourceful and show what you can do. but if I could have the chance to go to college again, I would definitely go

Well education is a stepping stone to be successful in life, that's your key to reach your dreams. But its not the only way to succeed, as long as you are striving and determine then anything is possible through hardwork even you're not a degree holder.

If you had to do it all over would you go to college?

If given a chance yes, its an accomplishment that no one can steal.

[mayureeana]

education is the only thing that no one can get from you

[jdarren]

I think the experience to get the degree is more important than the degree itself.

[boyptc]

I think the experience to get the degree is more important than the degree itself.

Experience wise but that's not enough I think. What's more valuable is after getting the degree, the experience will be massive and it will teach you more than what you have learned from getting that degree.

As said, it's practical to get higher education but getting a degree doesn't define ones success.

[Decimation]

This is a commonly asked question these days, especially with the rise of entrepreneurs / freelance work. In my personal opinion - It completely depends on the industry. If you plan to be a doctor but don't go to college, you're not going to be a doctor. However, things like programming and business can be pretty easily self-taught and often times don't require any type of degree to get places. I am in college as a computer science major, but I am able to do freelance work right now and make decent money without any official education. You need to find an industry where people are measured based on the final product and not the initial qualifications.

[Decimation]

I think the experience to get the degree is more important than the degree itself.

But firstly you should get degree then experience will be counted, if you have no degree then no multinational company give you job, then where you get experience, only one man may be here in out of lack whom made his life without degree and experience wise he is earning money.

This is, unfortunately, the truth when it comes to a lot of fields. It's all about the shiny badge to even get into the door, not about your actual work. It's not necessarily the wrong way of thinking in a lot of cases though, with a degree it's just another thing that "confirms" you've actually done all the work to a certain extent. Without it, there is no way of knowing what you have done / not done. And when given the choice to pick one of the two, they are always going to go with the "certified" applicant. But like I said in my previous post, it's really about the industry you are in. However, if you want to get a higher-up job in any industry, you need higher education. Yea there may be a few Bill Gates' out there, but the odds are terribly slim. Even if you have to go into some debt at an okay college, it will make everything miles easier for you farther down the line.

[Floxxors]

Exactly, because it will bring us to a higher value of life.

Actually, there are many individuals who didn't even have a chance to get in to college but are now successful.
