Mid-terms

 I'm studying Engineering here in Korea and boys are studying something else, like international relationship and abstract art and so on, so our majors en here are quite different in here. I can tell about my experiences about studying all the way here and boys can tell their own stories about their studies.

So, we had our mid-terms already and it didn't went quite well! I was surprised when I was told that we can not use any formula-book in the exam. In every class the teacher will teach us approximately 10 different kind of formulas twice a week, and we supposed to remember them all. That is not going to happen to me. Usually we don't even understand those formulas right because of the speed of teaching and the intonation and pronunciation of the teacher. Only in one course we are allowed to do a cheating list which we can bring to the exam.

Also here we have more homework than in my school in Finland. I have to do maybe 3 reports in one every week, but also I have to do my homework as well. In one course the teacher is giving us two homework every week, and usually one homework includes maybe 4 exercises. So I have too much to do. I don't have enough time to actually just study the topics of the course step by step, because I have to do reports and homework all the time. And we can't get any results from the homework, so we don't know how wrong we made them. But I guess that studying here it is not always like this. It depend what major do you have and are you lucky to get good teachers. Some of the exchange-students had also told me that their courses are too easy for them.

I have also many laboratory classes
