Some people hold the opinion that adolescents should pay attention to all the subjects taught at school. On the other hand, some people believe that adolescents should only focus on subject that lie in their interest area. I agree with the former statement as students need to be taught all the subjects so they can form a basic understanding in each subject which is crucial for the choices they make in future.
A child develops most of his basic understandings and ideologies from what he is taught at school. Therefore, it is necessary that a child is given ample exposure in each subject so as to decide where his interest lies in. Children are often double-minded whether they want to pursue a career in a particular subject or not. If they don’t have a basic understanding in all areas and subjects, how will they be able to make a correct choice about the subject they want to pursue in future?
If a child solely focuses on one particular subject, leaving other important subjects behind, he will not gain any practical or theoretical knowledge in those subjects, thus losing opportunities in future. Every subject is crucial and offers something to learn, be it practical or theoretical, and to be able to make right choices for oneself in the future, it is crucial to have knowledge about all the subjects taught in school.
Therefore, I am a firm believer of the fact that for quality education, it is essential to focus on all the subjects, thus saving oneself from future regret of not opting for the right career.
