One possible version:

Career or Degree? Every Graduate' s Decision

After staying on campus for many years, some students become bored and can' t wait to get a job. They are eager to lead a life that is less stressful intellectually and less pressing economically. In their eyes, a job can provide them with opportunities to solve problems that will demand a combination of both academic knowledge and practical experience.

However, some students plan to continue their education in pursuing further degree. As far as academic preparation is concerned, the knowledge and skills acquired at an undergraduate level are far from adequate in the job market. It is a fact that an ever-increasing number of graduates are returning to school, motivated by the need to update their knowledge and enhance their skills. The news that graduates with higher degrees are better off is a direct result of the shrinking job market.

All this indicates that a bachelor' s degree can hardly qualify students for a competitive position. If I were able to choose for myself, I would pre-fer to stay and pursue an M. A. degree. I know my choice would mean a commitment of time and money. Opportunities, however, always co-exist with hardships and risks. The days might be rigorous and painstaking, but they would certainly be fulfilling and rewarding, and would surely lead to a prosperous future.
