Most Korean college students study because they want to pass the test and to get lucrative jobs. Everyone is so busy putting a lot of knowledge at a short time. That kind of instant knowledge can’t be mature in one’s mind and disappear rapidly. I am also in a college and study as hard as everybody does, but I’m really not sure what I have been doing is anyway related to my cognitive, mental maturation. When I read a book, I wish that I had time to reflect the book. I get really excited when I found some connection between two different subjects.

I'm so afraid that that's how I've been doing. I've always been studying only for an exam. To be honest, I hardly study something if there isn't any exam coming up. I think I really need to start reading a book first before it's too late. I feel that my braing is not working very well as time goes by.
ReplyDeleteKorean education is very test=focused. Hopefully that changes in the future.
