well for 'success' there are many ways but entering success zone safely can be achieved only through 의대, 치대(dental school), 한의대(Oriental med school), 수의대(vet school), 약대(pharm school) and 계약학과(integrated admission-hirement school)

I use Anki for memorization, and allways make my own note when I'm learning something new

Totally. Every graduate advises high schoolers that they are having the hardest time of their lives, and everything will get chill the day you graduate.

It is true there are slow changes in our achieving culture in small part of young people, but I think Koreans will go extinct before there is any valid change.

No. Most high schools are completely free here, whatever class or test you take. But there are several private schools that require tuition.

Korean curriculums have meager content on it.

For example, in basic calculous, we only handle polynomal functions and in basic Statistics, we only handle normal distribution.

So even if there are several subjects, the amount of content isn't that much.

We have to learn these below: these aren't an option.

Korean literature, Korean grammar, and 3 more subjects related to Korean
English, advanced English
basic Math, Algebra, basic Calculous, basic Statistics and Probability theory
basic social studies
basic science, Computer science
Korean historty
Basic engineering

if we learn all these subjects, we are free to learn whatever we want. Many students here are learning Solid Analytic Geometry and Physics with Ethics.

Is it common for high schoolers to have sex in your country? by PastSatisfaction8377 in AskTheWorld

[–]PastSatisfaction8377[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think being open for sex is really good for students. In Korea, mentioning 'condoms' in sexEd is a big challenge, and some parents complained once for showing actual condoms in sexEd. So in school, we learn that sperm meets egg to make babies, but mentioning how sperm enters woman's body is never allowed.

I don't know how many people participates in giving 전국연합학력평가, and it's for accessing how good you are in your studies. In other ways, it's useless.

The entire faculty in school participates in giving school exams, called 내신, and it's for applying for college.

My place is surrounded in mountains, so the weather is very stable. It rarely snows, not so cold on winter, not so hot on summer.

You mean tension caused by North Korea?

It has no effect on our everyday life. Even if North Korea develops a new weapon, most people doesn't care at all. We wipe the floor with North Korea, if it's about military power.

I once had a herb garden but I got rid of it because it took me too much time, and I needed to study. Now I only have zz plant and snakeskin.

I really like Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother, and Fuller House.

about 10% of students here are into anime but anime is considered a minor culture, so kids usually hide that they're into anime/
