The essay topic is - University education should be free to everyone regardless of their income. To what extent do you agree or disagree?'' One of the suggestions to paraphrase the theme is - "Nowadays many people are concerned about the issue of free university education despite the people’s financial status...." I believe this sentence looks and sounds a bit weird. Native speakers would not paraphrase the theme of the essay in this way. Could you correct the sentence so that it would mean the same as the essay theme but using synonyms?
