Consistency
Grade 12 students may take college courses. A student is not allowed to work while studying college courses.
Is it correct to use "students" (plural) in the first sentence and use "A student" in the following sentence. They both refer to all students. Do we need to use "students" in the 2nd and in the following sentences for consistency?

Anonymous Do we need to use "students" in the 2nd and in the following sentences for consistency? I would make them consistent, but I would not repeat quite so much. Students in Grade 12 may take college courses, but they are not allowed to work while doing so.
