gosh! two years with that much stress? guess you have a lot more competition than we do. of course, we need to do our best at school but we also have the possibility for people who don't make it to college to do an apprenticeship to learn a profession so it's like maybe 25 % of all swiss people going to university in the end. one of my co-students at university was from china and not only did he learn german and french in the fastest possible time but he has also finished his studies with great grades some time ago while i'm still at it.

more and more chinese students study aboard nowdays,and they are either the best or the worst.I think the one you meet must be one of the best.
in China,it is not so difficult for most students to go to a college,at least not for me.But if one wants to go to a good college,he must pay a lot of vigour and effect.like me,I want to go to the peking university which calls for highest grades,and I want to join the psycology department which only admits 30 candidates in the whole country.so it is really hard.
