Is education all you need to get ahead?

  • BRIAN, 19

    "Not really. There are times when you end up having to use the trade that you know without going through complicated educational systems."

  • LEONARD, 17

    "No. Education is not all you need to get ahead, because you can get ahead by sports and many other things. Still, education is very important."

  • MARVIN, 15

    "Education is not all. I think, because there are lots of jobs available and being educated just gives you an advantage at a job."

  • KAY-ANNA, 19

    "Well, education is the stepping stone to the future. Therefore, I definitely think that education is the main, if not the only way of getting ahead."

  • TAMARA, 22

    "Education is perceived to be the ideal route towards a successful future. I think that if an individual has education, accompanied by a good attitude and exceptional interpersonal skills, then they will get ahead. Therefore, you definitely need education."

  • TAMAR, 19

    "In today's world, without education certain achievements cannot be obtained. Therefore education is a necessity for getting ahead in life."
