Midterm week

I really like how Yonsei has a week designated to midterm. It's similar to a finals week back at UHM. It was a rough week for everyone to study. Cafes, study rooms, library, lounges, are filled with Yonsei students studying for their exam. I can see that the Korean students are very serious with their study. My Korean friend told me that the students would study very hard then pass out and miss their exam (this is pretty common..). All that studying for nothing! I also saw many students sleeping on their books during the day.

Yonsei has many cafes on campus and I recommend to study at a cafe. The atmosphere is great and not too serious. You can enjoy some coffee and music while studying. I think the cafe was a much better environment for me to study in compare to a library. The fact that there are students every studying made me much more motivated. 

I have 4 midterms and 2 papers due all in a 1-2 weeks time period. Most of my time outside of class is spent at a cafe.
