Should grade 12 University level English be a requirement for entry into all university programs?7/6/2020 Is there any point of having grade 12 English as a requirement for all university courses? Yes. English is very important to learn and everyone should be taught the course because it is very useful. High school English courses can help in many ways that benefit the person going into University. Individuals can learn lessons, such as, grammar errors/ proper way of writing sentences, correct essay formats, poetry, Shakespeare, and reading novels. These lessons help enhance students' thinking and understanding. Poetry really makes you think of meaning the poet is trying to portray. Shakespeare plays allow us to extend our thinking by writing in a way were we might not be familiar with. Reading novels throughout the course lets students' expand their vocabulary and allows them to read where in other courses they may not do so. If grade 12 English was required for all University courses, it would encourage students to put more effort into the course which allows them to fully understand the contexts given and to learn more.

I agree with this! Students need the prior education - that grade 12 English university level classes provide - if they wish to succeed in post-secondary endevours. Although it may not seem relevant at the time of learning, the skills learned leave lasting effects on us and are beneficial in the future.
