Hi,
Glad to have your feedback!
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? It is more important for students to study history and literature than it is for them to study science and mathematics. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
I do not agree that studying history or literature is more important than studying mathematics or science. It is true that history is an important subject for the people to learn lessons from the past, which would help correct present and future mistakes. In the same manner literature too helps develop the human cultures that are very essential contributors to make the world a better place. However, science and mathematics too are very important subjects that had helped improve the quality of the lives of the people. Therefore the importance of mathematics and literature cannot be considered as inferior, in contrast to the importance of history or literature.

First, if not for mathematics and science the people would not have been able to achieve this technological advancement.(What technological advancement) The contribution of mathematics and science is very significant in major fields such as engineering and medicine. Today we have mobile phones to communicate; advanced medical equipment to carryout surgeries; electric trains and aero planes to commute and travel, microwave ovens to cookwith . All these inventions are productsare examples of howof science and mathematics thathave turned our hard lives to enjoy more convenient, efficient and quality lives. Therefore it is very imprudent to undermine the value of learning science and mathematics.
Secondly , the students should pursue their education in the field of their interest. The sS tudents usually differ in their subject interests. If a student who is brilliant in mathematics is forced to study history, for which he has no interest at all, he may finally give up studying both. My father says that he faced a similar situation when he was in school. He loved Botany and because the school did not have teachers to take up classes, the students were forced to study art subjects that included English, history and geography. This demoralized him and he decided to give up the idea of pursuing a tertiary education at the university since none of those subjects were of his interests.
Thirdly , it is not fair or wise to compare the subjects on their importance because each subject has its own unique set of values that would largely contribute positively to the society. For example, without literature people would not be able to enjoy life. It positively contributes to one's culture which is an important aspect of building a powerfulto society. However this does not mean that this subject is superior to other subjects such as mathematics, science, commerce, aesthetic subjects, etc. Though commerce is not the subject of this topic, that too have a great influence on society, without which no trade would take place.
Finally, I believe all the subjects are uniquely important and are valuable contributors for a brighter future of the mankind. Therefore, I conclude that studying science and mathematics areis just as important as history and literature.
I hope that helps!
Hi! Sure, we can offer a different perspective on your essay, but it would be far better (first) if you would revise it -- it has all of the marks on it from the previous person who critiqued it for you. Besides, I think that if you were to take the time to re-work the essay, you will find that it might read better for you. Try that, and then re-post it.
