Thesis
The National examination result will be
publicly enounced in next short time. Euphoria
will flood for those who get success. In the
other hand, It will be sorry to hear that there
are some of them do not succeed in their
national final examination. For those who
succeed soon will think to decide; where will
they be after graduating high school? Actually
it will be easy to decide for those has been
arranged and thought earlier but for those
have not planed yet, it will be quite confusing.

Argument
Continuing study as well as seeking job is possibly done but it will
be hard for them. Conventionally studying in the university needs
much time to spend especially in the first year. It is true because they
have to do and adapt a lot of things in their new higher school. it will
be very hard to looking for job. Therefore it should come to their mind
of continuing studying at higher school from their own home. As
result, the available time will be more flexible for them. Then it will be
very possible to seek job and get the appropriate one. This type of
studying is publicly known as distance learning.

Recommendation
As the alternative method of studying,
besides the conventional studying which
students and the lecturer have to meet
in the fixed time and place regularly,
distance learning provides possibility to
grow better. Possibly working and
studying surely will create high quality
graduate. Distance learning should
appear as a considerable choice for
them.
