One possible version:
Every student will be faced with the question when he passes the college entrance examinations: Should I choose a good major or a good university first? Some students prefer to consider majors first so that they can learn what they are interested in.It will also make it possible for them to take their favorite job in the future.Those who think differently believe that the environment is important to one’s
development and that graduates from leading universities are often more likely to find a good job.In my opinion,the best choice is a good major at a good university.If we cannot obtain both, the first thing to consider is a good major, because no matter where we study, we can still achieve a lot in a certain field if we try our best.
