Essay - learn in School vs. through experience

It is correct that one cannot learn everything in school. More importantly we can learn more from our real life experience. In school, we have been taught that good wins over evil. But in the real life, it is not always the case. Or even it’s the opposite. Only being a good man does not guarantee that you will succeed in your life. There are big differences between the things you learnt in school and the things that are happening in the real world. Especially in Korea, schools play as institutes that teach skills and how to get good scores. A good school or a good teacher is determined based on how many students enter good universities. These days, schools are no more teaching how to be a good citizen, but rather focus on how to win others. There is nothing so easy to learn as experience and nothing so hard to apply. What one has not experienced, one will never understand in print.
