    Many people believe that modern education gives students too much information which is useless in one’s life or career. Others think that consuming a great amount of teaching material provides multifaceted development of students and drives smarter decisions. One should consider both sides of the issue to reach a conclusion.
    To begin with, studying a variety of different subjects gives you an opportunity to learn a multitude of facts and terms and gain practical skills where it is possible for a short period of time. It makes your class work more efficient, especially if you sleep enough and put your brain in the proper condition. One should note here that many experts agree that the human brain works much faster when it absorbs ample information. Another positive aspect about it is that in our modern world, every field of life or career somehow is bonded to another area of activity. It means that being an well-rounded person will help you to be competitive in the labor market and to obtain a prestigious and well-paid job.
    The other side of the coin, however, is that not everyone can cope with a huge flow of information, which often results in lack of sleep, stress and wasted time. This problem especially concerns first-year students, who are stressed from the dramatic change in their way of life, the assessment system, and their lack of free time which, in turn, may affect their academic performance. Additionally, the observations of some experts indicate that the majority of students after graduating from a university do not use theoretical material in practice.
    To draw a conclusion, one can say that both points of view on this issue are worth being considered. In my opinion, teaching far too many things at universities is not the most beneficial method of higher education in the modern world. I believe that people should pay more attention to gaining practical skills and using them in their daily lives and careers.
