[CSharp]

Question: College years are the best time in a person’s life. Dou you agree or disagree? Give reason for your answer.

Solution:
I don't agree with the statement that college years are the best time in a person's life and I have reasons for it. Usually college time is considered best time because it's the time when a person is considered to be at his/her full youth, he/she is considered more powerful, more challenging, daring and threatening, but there's another side of this picture that I want to mention.

College years are the days when a boy or a girl have to plan his/her future, this is the time when someone have to decide for their career and have to put some effort in order to make the plans go well. With the tension of full course load that students have to take, they have to decide for their career and mostly students at this age seems to be depressed and victims of the diseases like stomach problems and bad health.

Furthermore college years are the time when most of the students have to worry about their financial expenses. Most of the students are not capable of bearing the expenses of their studies but in order to continue their studies they have to work part time. Paid work with education is probably one of the tough things to cope with because of their diverse nature.

At the same time in the college years, students have more chances in falling into love and getting serious about marital relationships. I think the human mind is not very much mature at this stage, due to the young blood everything seems to be gold and every glamorous thing seems to attract human beings.

So with the issues like taking serious care of the higher level studies one have prepare for the marital relationships and on top of that one have to start working towards his/her career, from planning to settling it down. I think I am passing through one of the tough times in my life where I have to fight like a soldier because I can see the bright future and best years that still have to come, which would become possible due to the hardships that I bare at my college time.
