2. Reading: Choosing the Right Path (20 puan)
Read the text and answer the questions. (Metni oku ve soruları cevapla.)
Many students in their final years of high school feel under pressure when they choose a university department. According to a recent survey of 2,000 teenagers, 45% said they chose their field because of their families’ expectations, while only 30% chose a subject they really enjoyed. Experts suggest that students should research different careers, talk to professionals and, if possible, do short internships before deciding. “Your interests and skills matter more than other people’s opinions,” says career counsellor Deniz Aksu. She also reminds students that changing direction later in life is not a failure but part of lifelong learning.
