What they can do is waiting the letters of admission from the universities. At present, more and more students crowd into universities. College students are everywhere. However, do you ask yourself why to enter the university? Some may say that the reason is that he or she want to learn much knowledge. Others may say:" I wanna find a good job after graduation and earn a lot of money. Especially for those students who come for rural areas, they believe that Entering the university is the only way to change their fate, not to be a farmer like their parents. However, the reality is cruel. There are more and more college students. They have to face more fierce competitions and challenges to find a job. Actually, they are in dilemma. Some of the college students say that there are two things which are the cheapeast in the market. One is the cabbage, the other is the college student. Confronted with this kind of situation, some of the high school graduates would not like to take college entrance exams. They say that entering a university is useless. Studying is also useless. If you can not find a job to feed yourself and your family after graduation, how come you enter a college? Here comes the question: why do many students go to colleges? Studying is useless? Looking forward to your comments and opinions.

Studying is never useless, we are all better people for the knowledge we learn.

But things may differ between UK and China. You know we have a large population. Someone is eager to go to college but cannot afford the fee while someone waste their college life. It's really a pity.
