In which situation does this conversation most probably take place?

Question: Do you suggest going to graduate school right after undergraduate school or going out in the working world and getting some experience before you get your master’s degree?
Girl: I would say that if you plan on going to graduate school, you should do it tight away. For the first couple of years when I got out of college, I did take some additional courses from some other schools, and that was easy for me to do; but recently, I have been trying to study for a professional engineering exam, and those good study habits that I talked about earlier, they’re gone. I have so many other responsibilities now that it is very hard for me to concentrate now on that.
Boy: I’d like to give you another perspective on that. I think that there are really two different things that you need to think about. If you know in your senior year that you want to do research and this is the area that you want to study, then go ahead right away. If you are not sure, and you want to get a little work experience before you specialize in a particular field, then you should do that. One of the things that you may find is that if you get a full-time job, many of the big companies in science and engineering will pay your tuition to go to graduate school. Now, I’m not suggesting in any way that it’as easy to work full-time and go to graduate school part time. I did it, and it was tough. I didn’t have a life for three years, but that may be an option for you, especially if you haven’t focused yet on what you want to do in graduate school.
