Essay "Differences to find a job with a University degree"

This is the essay we did as an exam but with my mistakes corrected 

It is common to think that the more studies you have the better job you can get and that is right but not everyone wants to go to college or they can't afford it.

In both countries there are public or private universities, however, the amount of people who decide to start their studies is small. Statistics say that approximately 64% of high school students in the U.S. go for higher studies. In Mexico, the percentage is lower and a number of people who graduate are even smaller. 

Finding a job can be difficult even if you have a University degree, but there are some differences between Mexico and the U.S. It depends on the subject of your major if you get a well-paid job of course but it seems that in Mexico City, even if you have a major you don't get that dream job that you think you would have. Or you could obtain a job that isn't paid enough and you end with the same salary as a job that only requires high school degree. 

In the U.S. however, there is not that much of a problem finding a good with your degree. Besides, there are often more and more jobs that require a special subject degree but as always people think that salary is good. Just as I said before, the higher studies you have the better job you get. I found out that many people in Mexico City who had Ph.D. travel to the U.S. to get a job because in Mexico the jobs that you can get aren't that well-paid. 

It's a sad thing that in out country you don't get the support that you deserve for your effort. In Mexico, there is just a small number of people who have a Ph.D. and the majority go to the U.S. to find a job. That explains how different these two counties are.
