选修课的益处

Nowadays many college students prefer to have electives in their spare time because the courses can offer a variety of skills and abundant knowledge apart from what they learn in the daily courses. There are many factors that may account for it, and the following are the most conspicuous aspects.

　　Firstly, many students want to get another degree so that they can have more competence when they apply for a job. Secondly, I don’t care about degree or job; I just want to learn some necessary skills to make my college life worthwhile. What I’m concerned most is how to own more skills that may be necessary for my future. Last but not least, some students want to learn something that is different from what they are learning now. The students who learn maths, for example, want to know about Shakespeare while the music students want to tell how a vehicle works and how to deal with it when it breaks down. So, they can all get what they think is useful to their college life.

　　All in all, the elective courses are useful for the students who are in colleges or seeking for jobs.
