Name: Kindergarten Homework Activities Week Of 2 16 16 ****************************: Fill & Download for Free

I was a KGSP scholar, batch 201x, Master’s program.Please take note that the KGSP scholarship for undergraduate and graduate students are different. I had the latter.TL;DR Learning Korean for a year with the other scholars was so much fun. However, it is very important that you verify who your professor/s will be in graduate school. If your major is a technical one, verify if you need to work in a university laboratory. Verify if your professor is a good person (or not). If you are still not sure about it, proceed at your own risk.The following outlines my experiences as a government scholar in Korea:KGSP is indeed the best scholarship for international students in Korea. It covers everything, from airline tickets to/fro Korea (Korean Air or Asiana, economy seat), moving in, tuition, enough monthly allowance, thesis printing expenses, etc. You won’t have much problem with regard to money if you spend within your means. However, it is a bit hard to save money as most of the time the monthly allowance is just enough.The scholarship program includes a required 1 year intensive Korean language course, and then 2 years of study for Master’s or 3 years for PhD. You need to obtain TOPIK level 3 on your first year (the highest level is 6). Learning Korean will help you immensely while living in Korea.Korean language was quite hard to learn especially for an English speaker like me. The grammar structures were so different from English, not to mention the numerous words I had to learn. It took me lots of practice to eventually feel comfortable in using the language. Prepare to feel stupid everyday. (Though this goes for learning any new language.)One of the things I was truly thankful for was that I was able to meet people from different countries who eventually became lifelong friends. For our batch, students were divided equally and enrolled to only a select few university language institutes. This enabled scholars to gather, help, and support each other in learning Korean, as opposed to the previous KGSP system wherein scholars were enrolled to the language institute of the same university they applied grad school to. Because of this, I was able to meet and become friends with people from various countries like Thailand, Malaysia, Hungary, Taiwan, Germany, Russia, Ukraine, Bangladesh, India, Mongolia, Cambodia, USA, China, Yemen, Morocco, Zambia, and Kenya, among others. I was able to learn about different cultures from and make a bunch of unforgettable memories with these lovely people. Up to this day, we unanimously agree that the best time we had in Korea was during our first year of learning Korean language together.During our language training, almost all of us lived in a dorm and we were each other’s roomies (2 for each room). We were pretty lucky because our language institute’s university had a fairly new dorm building and that they gave KGSP students some % discount on the rent. When we first arrived, a taxi ahjussi was waiting for us at the airport and he took us directly to the dorm.Our language institute had an escalated intensive Korean language course wherein you could learn upto level 5 in just one year (there are 6 levels overall); other schools usually had 4 semesters a year (that means 4 levels a year). The first thing we did was take a placement exam and the teachers assigned us to appropriate levels. You don’t have to worry even if you don’t know a word of Korean—a lot of scholars started at level 1. I started at level 2 so I was able to finish till level 6. (I’m still a TOPIK level 4 though.)The Korean teachers we had were some of the most understanding, patient, and easy to talk to Koreans we’ve met in Korea. They were exposed to various cultures due to the variety of students they teach and spend time with everyday; they were also the first ones who would come to your rescue if you’re in trouble or if you needed help. All of them talk oh so clearly, too, compared to the average Korean. However, don’t expect level 1 classes to be taught in English. All Korean classes are taught in pure Korean—with lots of hand and body gestures. :)Expect to meet scholars who are fluent in Korean from day one—these people are some of the brightest minds from their countries after all. Once again, prepare to feel stupid everyday.Most of us passed TOPIK level 3 after the third or fourth semester of Korean language. After passing the exam, almost all of us felt like we didn’t want to try so hard anymore. This is because when they say ‘intensive language course’, it IS an intensive language course. We attended Korean classes from 9am to 3pm everyday (grammar, reading, listening, writing, speaking, vocab and expression), with culture classes on Friday till 5pm. We had assignments almost everyday—some of them were new words you had to use in a sentence, grammar practice questions, weekly essay writing for higher levels, and even a few transcription assignments. All of these homeworks together with midterms and finals in a span of a few weeks will make you very busy. But, of course, it pays off to do your homework. :) We got to wear our country’s traditional clothes on UN day and there was once an institute-wide quiz bee that was lots of fun. Our Korean teachers did all they could to make learning Korean language interesting for us. Students performed special numbers in Korean every end-of-semester ceremony and during level 6, our class very much enjoyed (enjoy is an understatement—it was so much fun!!!) producing and shooting a short Korean film (they air it every end-of-semester ceremony).There was a Korean buddy system wherein each of us was partnered with a Korean university student to practice Korean and hopefully become friends with. However, it almost always ended up with us going out for 1 or 2 awkward meals together before it wears off. Out of all the Korean buddies we met thru the program, only one (very cute namdongsaeng) became a longtime friend and continued to keep in touch.After language school, we needed to look for a place of our own in Seoul since we didn’t really want to stay at the university dorm due to curfew restrictions. It was very hard to look for one as almost all the rental ads were in Korean (though it was real-life practice for us), and that almost all of them were so expensive. Luckily, we bagged a great deal at a guesthouse/sharehouse for 300k won a person per month (me and a fellow scholar friend shared the room). What’s more, it was only a village bus to our uni and I could even choose to walk home when I wanted to do some exercise.Grad school experience largely depends on your chosen major, your university, your department, and most especially your advisor/professor. You must verify all the points mentioned above, especially the professor you will be working with (whether he’s a nice prof or not) to avoid getting a second culture shock (the first one being on your first week in Korea; almost everyone experiences one). In general, those of us who had majors that didn’t require working in a lab had better, less stressful experiences than those with technical majors who needed to work at a lab like me. If your major is anything technical that requires you to be part of a lab, your grad school life will most likely revolve around your advisor/professor. You need to choose not only an intelligent professor, but most importantly a professor who is good/nice to his students. Good professors in the technical field in Korea are rare and their labs are usually hard to get into due to high demand. To my experience, younger profs are generally more open-minded than older ones, but there are always exceptions. You need to find one who treats his students well if you don’t want to spend two/three years of grad school hell. (More explanations below.) During grad school, I lived with a fellow scholar/friend who was going to attend the same uni as me; she majored in International Trade and I majored in Computer Science, both Master’s. I’ll talk about my roommate’s routine and my technical grad school experiences in #13 and #14, respectively. I’ll also talk about some of our other fellow scholar friends’ situations in #16.My roomie was a grad student of one of the SKY (Seoul, Korea, Yonsei) university’s International Studies (IS) department where all classes are taught in English. I remember that she had foreign professors in some of her classes. She was always at our home sweet home on days she didn’t have class. She had so much more free time than me, although she would have loads of long papers to read and write piled up high before every semester ends. She was always able to take a little less than a month of vacation during semestral breaks. She also had more foreign classmates than me, and everyone in her class speaks fluent English. I once asked her what she thought of the grad program she was in and she said that it was exactly what she expected, that she knew the program wasn’t the best in the world, and that it was okay. I’m pretty sure she had a class where they discussed Korean culture together with other cultures of the world and analyzed them, because whenever I cry and confide with her about all my lab problems she would always confirm it to me that yeah, they had indeed tackled that topic in class. At that time I was basically living what she was learning about; our conversations gave me various perspectives into Korean culture and most of the time, it allowed me to find a way to understand those that are just too hard for me to understand. I owe her so much for that.Off to the most difficult part: I would like to warn the reader that what you are about to read is an account of a very difficult life of a graduate student in Korea. Please remember that this is just ONE OF MANY experiences that a student may encounter when studying in Korea. This does NOT absolutely imply that all experiences will be the same; every student’s experience will always be different. (If you want to know about our other scholar friends’ experiences, I talk about it in #16.) Here goes… When I first came to my uni’s ComSci dept., I was clueless to the fact that all grad students were required to have an advisor from day one and that you are required to work in your advisor/professor’s laboratory. At first the admin officers were not able to find my record and I was told to look for an advisor fast. After a week of contacting potential advisors, I was informed that they finally found my record on Friday; the admin officer then proceeded to escort me to my advisor/professor’s office. In all honesty, the first meeting with my professor was the biggest shock of my life in Korea. I was still a student fresh out of Korean language school at that time and I needed to do my best to concentrate just to catch what people were saying in Korean, and yet the prof was orienting me in full-speed Korean. It was a good thing I understood the important bits of what he was saying. He told me that I would have to be at the laboratory from 9am to 10pm from Mondays to Saturdays, that he would squeeze out 10 technical papers out of me during my two years there, that he accepted me into his lab because no other professor was willing to accept me during admissions (I was totally unaware of this since I applied for KGSP thru the Korean embassy in my country; it was a big mistake on my part not to contact the school directly before going), and that I should be thankful to him for accepting me (I’ve confirmed this statement with other labmates later on; apparently, he told every single one of them the same thing when they first came). After his long talk was over, I then asked him if I should start on Monday, but he cut me off and said, “No, you’ll start today,” then proceeded to escort me to the lab where he commissioned one senior labmate to give me a specific technical paper to read. I was so overwhelmed and in shock at that time; I vividly remember that I was trying desperately to understand the garble of words and equations in front of me until we heard the professor leave which signaled that we could finally leave also (at that time I wasn’t aware of this unspoken rule). The second huge shock was when I first attended the weekly lab meeting. As you know, my Korean listening skills were not at all good at that time, but I could at least get the gist of what the prof was saying in rapid Korean. He was basically telling my Korean labmates that they were useless, stupid, incompetent, foolish, have no talent—insult after degrading insult for around 30 minutes. I. Was. Dumbfounded. Internally, my jaw had already dropped to the floor. My thoughts at that time were, “Is what I’m hearing what I’m really hearing? Am I misunderstanding something?” But after 15 minutes into it I was sure I was hearing it right. I couldn’t believe it. It was a first for me to encounter a professor so foul-mouthed (in our country, professors are expected to always have the finest decorum and moral ground; they are mentors after all). Every single student in the meeting room had their heads bowed except me; I was gritting my teeth and trembling from trying to hide my shock. After that first lab meeting, it didn’t take me long to realize that every single weekly lab meeting was basically like the first one. Some even worse. There were far worse statements the prof told my Korean labmates (not me) during their one-on-one meetings like, “Why are you still living? The food you’re eating is such a waste. You should just jump off a bridge.” (That labmate quit our lab after one semester and d*mn good for him he quit early.) “You are a disabled fool” (he used ‘병신’, which is a very offensive word in Korean; that labmate was my closest Korean friend and she eventually quit SKY grad school after 1 and a half years into it for a no-name university with a much better lab environment and a very nice professor). At first I talked to the prof in pure English because I know I sounded like a kindergarten when I talk in Korean, but after a long while even when I was able to catch almost all of the prof’s Korean words, I resolved never to talk to him in Korean—I knew very well that I wouldn’t be able to debate with him in Korean about highly-technical topics, much less negotiate or even protest or get angry given the hierarchical context the language brings; most importantly, I also knew that he was less likely to swear in English (although he called me “stupid” once and I didn’t wait to call him out on it; even my parents didn’t call me that so what gives him the right). In truth, every day was so difficult; every day I would ask myself why I was still there (I had never quit anything in my entire life and I knew very well at that point I was very afraid to quit). The prof taught us the basics of the subject and nothing else after that; whenever I’d email a paper draft he would just check the format and some typos. The cycle was almost always like this: he tells me to look into something, he scolds me to present an idea fast, I present him an idea, he rejects it, he commands me to do something else, I protest because I’ve already researched it and know that it’s not likely to work, he insists that he’s right and the conversation doesn’t end until I agree to do it, I do it, it doesn’t work, he tells me I’m wasting precious time, and then proceeds to propose the very idea I presented to him the first time, of which he magically has no memory of me talking about said idea! How convenient! And with all that he gets to have the second authorship on the paper. It was so exhausting and beyond frustrating every time. (He was one of those profs who had already stopped actively doing research and relied on his lab’s students to produce more papers for him.) And yes, he indeed squeezed a lot of papers out of me that my labmates eventually gave me a nickname—“paper factory 논문공장” (It just so happened that I had the English advantage; it was common knowledge in academia that English technical papers were preferred than non-English ones, so I was a target to abuse in that way. After a while I started wishing I didn’t know English). As a result, it made me feel that I was only producing the bare minimum for a paper to be published every time, and that it always left me unsatisfied with my work. Once, he tried to encourage me to write another paper (I think he was beginning to realize at that time that I won’t write anymore) by promising that he would allot travel budget for me to be able to go to an international conference because he said he wants his students to experience presenting their work in front of other researchers. Since I love traveling, I did write a paper after that but as opposed to what he promised, he booked a ticket only for himself and proceeded to present MY paper in the conference by himself. I didn’t even know if he was able to present it properly since I’m pretty sure he doesn’t know the details of it—he didn’t lift a single finger on that research. I remember vividly that I was so furious not because I wasn’t able to travel, but because he intentionally lied to me. He was even the one who got angry at me when I calmly reminded him of his promise when he came back (my anger already subsided at that time; I just learned not to believe him again if there’s no guarantee that he will follow through). Sure enough, after that it seemed that he got wind of what I was thinking and he gave me a ‘guarantee’ by first sending the (scholarship) travel money to my bank account just to get me to continue to write two more papers. At this point it was already too hard to refuse—this was a few months before I was expected to graduate and I don’t want to bother about complications anymore. After that he refused to sign my graduation document if I didn’t submit three, yes three, journal drafts about previous topics I worked on. It was extremely exhausting to be exploited like that. Besides the pressure-to-publish exploitation, there were times when we were asked to return to the prof in cash one month’s (in my labmates’ cases, several months’) worth of BK scholarship (this is another scholarship being given by the Korean gov’t. to technical students of specific universities that qualify; it’s roughly $600 per month) saying that it’s lab money, yet my labmate who was assigned to audit the finances of the lab would say that sometimes the lab money would just magically disappear. One time when our labmate told us that the lab money was nowhere to be found again, we saw flight bookings made by the professor (apparently, she also handles that booking account; she handles both the lab’s finances and the booking of flights for us when needed) for both himself, and—surprise surprise—his daughter, tickets going to Europe. Wow. So my labmates’ scholarship money that’s supposed to be spent for their living expenses got cut off to pay for the prof’s daughter’s travel expenses. … Sigh… Despite everything, I’m still thankful that I was able to go to a Europe conference (by reminding the prof of his promise and getting shouted at), and most especially since I didn’t have to hear all the horrible, sarcastic, degrading c*ss words my Korean labmates were forced to hear almost everyday. … P.S. During my first months when I was still so optimistic, I tried closing the gap between the prof and the students at the lab (in English, of course) but it was repeatedly to no avail; the prof just gets angry every time. I was a fool to believe I could mend such broken relationships. … Also, there were very few alumni who came back to greet the prof on how he was doing (2 or 3?); the students who usually came back had something they needed from him. After graduating, all of us avoided the vicinity of the lab at all costs. … Enough of the negatives. In my uni’s ComSci dept., major classes were all in English; however, since it was quite a new mandate to convert the required courses in English, almost all professors were not yet comfortable with teaching in English (except 2 profs I had). In our department, it seemed that lab work was generally more important than course work, especially since all professors knew that all grad students were busy working in the lab. They almost always didn’t give us a flunking grade as long as you attend class and scored not too low on the tests (which I didn’t really like; there was no way for me to know if I did good or bad on the subject). To qualify for graduation, we needed to publish two papers, get at least A- in three major courses, and produce a panel-approved thesis.My Korean (and 2 ethnically-Korean Chinese) labmates were what made two years of grad school life a little more bearable for me. At first they all looked like they didn’t know what to do with me (they thought I didn’t speak and understand Korean); they warmed up to me after a few weeks. I actually brought home a severe headache every day during the first week for trying to concentrate and understand every single word they were saying. I learned after that not to force myself to digest it all and to catch just the important words/phrases. I owe so much to my two closest labmates/friends for explaining everything patiently to me every time there’s something I don’t understand in the ongoing conversation. (These two were the ones who had the biggest responsibilities in the lab; they were also the ones who quit after 1 and a half years because they just couldn’t take it anymore—they kinda crippled the lab by doing so and I think prof mulled over his actions for a few days at that time. Nevertheless, we’re still very close friends until now. Indeed, nothing beats very bad experiences in getting people to become the best of friends.) We would all be drinking together after lab hours almost every week till late (even on weekdays, which was very unusual for me at first) to complain to each other about our professor and our situation in general. We were the only ones who completely understood each other’s situation after all. For a foreigner like me, this kind of circumstance was definitely not normal; however, I was surprised to realize that to my labmates, this kind of situation, even if they think it’s not normal, was something that they should endure while in grad school (which still makes it kind of an accepted thing). What really alarmed me after a while was the realization that they seem to be gradually believing that they were stupid, incompetent, unskilled fools—what they kept on hearing from the professor almost every day. I had to always remind them that they are definitely not stupid, that they should believe in themselves. It also took me a year or more to get them to listen and realize that our situation was definitely not something they should quietly endure; that it’s basically human degradation by verbal abuse everyday, overwork with very little pay (the prof gave a student around $300 for one 3-6 month project; it was not an issue for me who had KGSP and the prof barely gave me projects anyway, but for my labmates who were taking huge loans to pay for tuition, it was a big deal—it meant they had to take 3–5 projects at the same time to cover for tuition and their living expenses), and very unhealthy working hours/days per week. Through my conversations with them, it was very enlightening to come across different perspectives on various topics; my beliefs and their beliefs clashed most of the time and were questioned over and over in almost every drinking and non-drinking session. (This is why Korea has a huge drinking culture—this is how people cope with so much stress.) I know very well that I am extremely lucky to have them as my labmates back then, considering that they would have very easily been people who didn’t give a d*mn on what a lone foreigner might be doing in a Korean lab. They were the people I spent the most time with everyday during grad school (yes, we were required to go to the lab even on semestral breaks) and I treasure my friendships with them very much.Other fellow scholar friends’ situations: one friend was in another SKY uni’s international studies program and her routine was almost the same as my roomie’s. Another friend in the same uni as me was taking Master’s in Civil Eng’g. but unlike me, was a little luckier with his professor. The only downside I heard from him was that he wasn’t able to meet his professor often and that his prof seemed like he didn’t care about him. He graduated without much problems. Yet another friend was in the same uni as us, and his case was quite different—at first he was telling us that his professor was awesome and that he was not at all hard to talk to (not like mine). However, more than 6 months to a year into his PhD he told us that it was starting to get really frustrating to talk to his prof and then one day, he and his prof got into a heated debate about something related to his research, both of them were not relenting, the prof got mad and told him that if he is not going to do what the prof tells him to do, he’d better get out of the lab (if my memory serves me right, it was along the lines of, “In my lab I am the king and if you’re not going to do as I say, get out of my kingdom”). Then our friend did just that—he packed all his stuff and never went back to the lab. It turned out that the prof’s side was wrong and our friend was right all along; his prof apologized to him (I don’t know how) but it was already too late; he had already decided to go back to Germany. (He’s now in a very prestigious university in Europe.) Another friend taking her PhD in chem eng’g outside Seoul also has a prof with a very huge ego, is foul-mouthed, and mandates long lab hours like my prof; she eventually breaks off with said prof after a heated argument with him during her thesis semester and went to stay for another semester to finish her thesis with a different prof in her department. Another friend who studied Master’s in computer eng’g outside Seoul had a prof who “didn’t care what happened to them and took all the scholarship money”. (There were a lot of corruption rumors surrounding profs; it was a good thing the profs didn’t have control over KGSP scholarship money.) Among our friends who were part of a university lab, two were the luckiest ones; one was taking com eng’g at one of the SKY uni’s and we didn’t much hear bad comments from him; the other was taking PhD in food science and she had the nicest Korean prof I’ve heard in a while. She expects to graduate this semester.Recalling all that was quite exhausting… It was like living it all over again and some parts were just too painful I was tearing up… However, I wanted to paint a realistic picture of the life I had when I was studying in Korea. I also wanted to take this chance to finally write about it (this is the first time I wrote about this) and get this off my chest.I hope I was able to show you some of the possible situations you may encounter if ever you decide to pursue your graduate studies in Korea. Clearly, there are two very extreme situations that may come your way. The biggest takeaway is to always do your research. The decision will always be up to you.I wish you luck in all your endeavors.

INTRODUCTIONA decentralised free educational systemThe Swiss constitution sets the foundations, namely that primary school is obligatory for every child and is free in public schools and that the confederation can run or support universities which are almost free for the citizens.Switzerland has a largely decentralised education system. Most decisions on the running of primary and secondary schools are taken at cantonal level. It is also the cantons which provide the bulk of the financing.A FREE “dual” system for citizen and foreign studentsThe country gives a very high value to some manual professions. At 18 years a good mechanical could earn 8000.- * 13, more than a bank or insurance employee.The costs for such studies are almost free.See below : cost for College secondary shoolsFlexible levels"Universität" (University):(College) (17/18-23)“Fachhochschulen" (Technical college) (17/18-22)Gymnasium (Secondary school): (13-17/18)Dual Education (Apprenticeship) (13-16)Mandatory school (7-12)Kinder Garten (5-6)Switzerland has the second highest rate of foreign students in tertiary, after Australia.DETAILSKinder Garten (5-6)They do not learn how to read and write but shall develop their social capabilities and get used to sit quiet for a while and pay attention to the teacher.Children may attend Kindergarten for one year or two years. Because they are supposed to start school at the age of seven, they go to Kindergarten when they are five and six years old.Mandatory school (7-12)The "Volksschule" (elementary school) is mandatory for all Swiss children. Elementary school starts at the age of seven and lasts at least eight, but usually nine years.Some schools offer an additional year for kids who haven't either yet decided what to do after school, haven't found a job to start an apprenticeship or haven't yet reached the age to start what they would like to do. The "Volksschule" is divided into "Primarschule" and "Oberstufenschule":"Primarschule" For the first 6 years, sually, the children have only one teacher who teaches all subjects."Oberstufenschule" lasts 3 years. Usually, there are at least two teachers for each class, one teaches some, the second the other subjects. There may be other teachers for some special subjects like gym, needlework, cooking and so on.Dual Education (Apprenticeship) (13-16)In Switzerland, most kids start a "Berufslehre" (apprenticeship). Depending on the profession, an apprenticeship takes two to four years. Apprenticeships include all kinds of professions, from handicraft (mechanician, carpenter, baker, hairdresser etc.) to office worker (secretary, bookkeeper, IT specialist etc.).Apprentice will get trained at a company or organization, but also attend school for one or two days a week.Some companies also provide additional classes on their own.After apprenticeship and depending on their education, young people can either start a job or join other schools for further education.Gymnasium (Secondary school): (13-17/18)There are various types of "Gymnasia" (secondary schools) with different emphasis and major subjects:The secondary school of math and science focuses on math and science, but teaches German and two foreign languages as well (usually French and English or Italian).The secondary school of modern languages focuses on modern languages such as German, French, Italian and English, but includes some math and science as well.The secondary school of ancient languages focuses on Latin plus at least two other languages, but includes math and science subjects as well.There is also the "Wirtschaftsgymnasium" (secondary school of economics) that focuses on economy.Recently, new types of "Gymnasia" have been introduced, such as the"Musisches Gymnasium" (secondary school of art) which focuses on music and art and the "Sportgymnasium" (secondary school of sports) which emphasis on sportive activities.All these secondary schools last either six and a half or four and a half years and lead to the so called "Eidgenössische Matura" (federal graduation diploma) which is recognized at all universities in Switzerland and at most universities in foreign countries.Fachhochschulen" (Technical college):After an apprenticeship, a young person can still start an academic career. Depending on the profession, she or he may attend a "Fachhochschule" (technical college).As an alternative to a full-time study, an employee may also attend a so called "Abendtechnikum" (evening college).She or he continues to work, but attends school at night and on Saturdays. Some employers allow students either to do some homework at the office or provide some other easements. The evening college lasts six years."Fachhochschulen" (FH) are spread all over Switzerland."Universität" (University): (free for citizens and foreign students)There are eleven "Universitäten" (universities). In general, the universities run by the cantons provide non-technical subjects, whereas the universities run by the confederation provide technical subjects. The later are therefore called "Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology".The following universities are run by a canton:Universität Basel (BS)Universität Bern (BE)Universität Fribourg (FR)Universität Genf (GE)Université de Lausanne (VD)Université de Neuchâtel (NE)Universität St. Gallen (SG)L'Università della Svizzera italiana (TI)Universität Zürich (ZH)One of the technical universities run by the confederation is located in the German speaking part of Switzerland, the other in the French speaking part:Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich (ETHZ)École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL)The education is now broken up into two parts similar to the education in the USA:- a bachelor study (three years)- a masters study (one and a half or two years)After a successful completion of the masters study, one can start working on a thesis in order to get a doctor title. This takes usually three to four years.With their different histories, approaches, and research focus, as well as their language diversity, the 10 cantonal universities and the 2 Federal Institutes of Technology are poised to usher a multicultural Switzerland into the future.They all share a drive for quality in teaching and research, an ambition for excellence, the flexibility to cater to a multitude of demands, and the foresight to anticipate future requirements and challenges.This results in their consistently being ranked among the best universities in the world.Many Nobel prizes have been awarded to Swiss scientists. More recently Vladimir Prelog, Heinrich Rohrer, Richard Ernst, Edmond Fischer, Rolf Zinkernagel and Kurt Wüthrich have received nobel prizes in the sciences. In total, 113 Nobel Prize winners stand in relation to Switzerland and the Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded nine times to organizations residing in Switzerland.[3][4] Geneva hosts the world's largest particle physics laboratory, the CERN.[5] Other important research centers are the Empa and Paul Scherrer Institute which belong to the ETH domain.SOURCE : Education in SwitzerlandSUMMARYbildungssystem.educa.chWhy does Switzerland do so well in university rankings?The Top 3 Educational Systems In The WorldSwitzerland:Overview - Eurypediabildungssystem.educa.ch

I could try but most of it would just be about my past and how my life is right now and my crushes and so forth. But I don’t think it matters now does it? I mean is not like anyone cares about my past so I’m fine which is good. Anyway, let’s just start with this answer thingy already now can we?So where should I start? I mean I should start off with my childhood but don’t know if that’s relevant to this answer now is it? But I suppose I should so who cares right? Ok let’s start:So many times I’ve mentioned I’m an adopted child and I’m from Vietnam. There’s always this one thing I’m always thinking about. It’s about my birth parents. I’m not allowed to ask my adopted mother about them because they’re not important my adopted mother says. All she tells me is they were bad parents and that was it. Nothing else. Not a day goes by when I don’t think about them at all and wonder: WHY? Nothing feels right when I think of them. Ever since I was adopted, I’ve been wondering so much about them like: Where are they? How are they? What did or do they look like? Why did they leave me on the side of the road?My only wild guess to any of those questions is: They never cared about me and even if they did, they wouldn’t have loved me.My whole life has been screwed up because of them and I can’t believe that they would just leave me on the side of the damn road. I sometimes imagine what they would look like when they did that. But like, who does that to their own child?! Who leaves them on the side of a damn road where that child could be run over?! Unless they were trying to kill me!! Which would probably be better if a car did run over me and I died!! But anyway, growing up with an adopted mother kinda made things worse for me but I’m happy to be living in the US now and I suppose I’m happy with my life and how it’s going.But as I grew up, my life was even more, I suppose, “fun” then I thought. When I was 3, my adopted mother told me I always walked and then fell over and over again that she should’ve just bought me a Football helmet and be done with it but she didn’t and I continues to fall. When I was 4, I went to daycare instead of Preschool and it was probably better than I thought. I loved the woman who took care of me and the other children. She was nice, funny, and made the best pancakes I’ve ever had before and I always loved watching her make them. She would also let us watch TV before we took our naps and I always watched teletubbies (don’t start).Another thing I loved about her was when she would give us ice cream on the hot days and then soup on the cold days. She didn’t mind me which was good because I was a crazy child at that age and I was always all over the place and one thing that was really nice was meeting my first friend at that age and daycare. She lived at the house (yes my daycare was a house not a building. Oh wait it is a building anyway) and was the niece of the daycare person. We would always have a good time together and we would also play a lot outside with water for some reason.One memory I have from daycare was when I was playing soccer with this one boy and we were kicking the ball to the side of the house and when I wasn’t really paying attention, the boy kicked the ball and it hit me which caused me to hit the side of the house and I had scratches all over my face (I know right? I’m so smart). Anyway, i also had a lot of free time to go on the daycare person’s computer. Everyone was allowed on it and each of us had a specific time limit on it and I always played these little kid games (well no shit. I’m a little kid). Then it was summer which meant no more daycare sadly.Then when I was 5 and started Kindergarten (kinda late for me to start I know or I don’t know), I became uncontrollable and I was a crazy child. I never had a good relationship with my fellow students nor the teachers. One thing I do remember though was every time it was nap time, I never slept because it was nearly impossible to do so since I had ADHD. My teacher hated me and I didn’t know that at all. One thing I was told by my mother was that I ran around with a chair above my head and I hit a kid on the head with it. I was also a crazy child and I never was able to control myself anymore and I knew that. I was never able to do anything. I have nothing else about when I was 5 so I move on to 6.When I was 6 I started 1st grade and I was like ok this will be alright and I’ll be a good child this year. So I started and I made a few friends and I suppose it was fun. I mean besides me getting in trouble over and over again (I was a troublemaker at that age and I still am). I always had this thing for trouble and I was always getting called to the office and I also got into a fight with a few kids. I was a bad student and the teachers hated me and I knew they did. One thing I remember about 1st grade was when I started a fight with this one girl who I hated (and still do to this day) and I didn’t get in trouble, she did even though I started the fight.After that year I started 2nd grade. I was a 7 year old and I hated it! My teachers hated me as well. One thing though about that year was I became more mischievous and I became more of a troublemaker. I got into a few fight with this one boy and I hated him because he would bully me for being “Chinese”. He would always make these stupid faces and half the time I wanted to smack it off him but I couldn’t until that one day. I had a few problems with a few kids because of my mischievous personality but hey! It’s not like I was so bad that I got expelled. Anyway, There was this one girl in my class who I didn’t like even though we never talked but I just hated her. So one day I cut a little bit of her hair off (hey I hated her ok?).But that was also when I had my first crush on a girl and I didn’t know what that meant. I had a huge crush on this one girl in my class. Her name was Isabella. She wasn’t Lesbian though so I had a harder time being around her. She was tall, cute, nice, caring, protective, and very lively. She never really knew me but I knew her. So on the day before spring break, I went up to her and told her I liked her. She was taken back but she was smiling. She said that she wasn’t Lesbian but she liked me as a friend and more than just a friend. We actually never had a really good friendship in the beginning but we got along after a while.But anywhosies, we “dated” but then broke up and what not. After that, we gave each other looks and always avoided getting in contact with each other and we never bothered to say hi. In 3rd grade though, she said she was leaving and that kinda broke my heart a little because I would miss her and I still liked her (kinda not really I don’t know). One thing I never understood about her is why she always walked on her tippy toes. It made no sense whatsoever. Why couldn’t she just walk normal?3rd grade was fun though. I had a lot of friends and they liked me for once. Nothing much really because 3rd grade was a bore to me after awhile and I didn’t really care about it that much so yeah. I think the only memory I have from 3rd grade was that I ate something I wasn’t supposed to and I threw up in class. But other than that, I never enjoyed 3rd grade because the teachers were boring.Same goes for 4th and 5th grade because I had the same teacher for two years straight and she liked me and i was her teachers pet. 4th grade though was when I got into Harry Potter and I enjoyed that a lot. Anyway, I know a lot about 6th so let’s move on to that year!6th grade was my year. It was finally my year to grow up and become a mature student (as if that ever gonna happen!!). My teacher really liked me and I was a good student at the time (for once). That was also when I got my first boyfriend as well. I had a lot of friends in that year and we always did weird things and the most common thing we did was sit next to the three big trees and then we would sit there, close our eyes, and then laugh at stupid things.I was asked out by my crush that year as well and we dated for sometime but then this new girl came and she started liking him to so we broke up and he started dating her and I didn’t really care anymore. She was a white girl and was very pretty and she was also his type so I gave up. One thing I do remember though is that I became friends with her during the 6th grade nature camp thingy in the Winter and we became good friends. We also had our first music class that year. We had a great time in that class and I played the Saxophone.But then there was graduation. Did I go? No. Did I get anything? Yes. Do I have to say what? No. Why didn’t I go? Hmm let me see…my mom booked a vacation on graduation day so don’t blame me for anything ok?Hmm..that seems to be it from my elementary years. I don’t really feel like talking about my Middle School years just yet because I’m still in 8th grade so I might mention that a little later. What should I talk about now..? Oh I got it! My crushes.Ok so I’ve had so many crushes throughout my school years. I can tell you about this years srushes because I know more about them than last years crushes and I wrote a lot about them before. So let’s start!So throughout my whole elementary and 7th grade years including this year, I have had about over 35 crushes in total. I have a huge boy issue and I can’t stop writing about them or when I think about them, I yell their name when I talk to my friends. I can’t seem to get them out of head even though I have a boyfriend and I have new crushes. So at my new school there are a few cute boys and their nice but not that cute except for a few. Let’s go and talk about them!As you guys know, I used to really like my cousin and I had an obsession over him. But that was before we even found out we were cousins. I used to watch him play Soccer and Football during PE while I talked to my friends. He would always be wild and crazy when it came to sports. One thing I loved most about him was his eyes. He had these bluish-green eyes which I loved so I gave him the nickname “Pretty Eyes” (I never told him about it). And then it was when we found out we were cousins. It made both of us scared of each other and we never talked again. Then again, we never did so we good.Then we have my ex-boyfriend Evodio. He used to be my enemy, I don’t know why I hated him but to hated me so, and when he asked me if we could be friends but I said not in a million years. But now were friends and we're pretty much even. Evodio always got on my nerves even if he wasn’t near me. But if anyone mentioned him, I would start to think of how much I hate him. Evodio actually had feelings for me when I actually started hating him. After awhile, we started dating and we never had a healthy relationship. So we broke up and never talked again (until recently then me block him).Then we have another boy and he’s really quite. His name is Mario. He’s very quiet, athletic, fast, and sometimes very lazy. He’s in two of my classes and he’s not very talkative in Spanish but when it comes to outside of class he’s always active, loud, and funny. Sad thing was, he had a girlfriend so I never engaged and I just kept liking him only. Mario loves Soccer and he’s always playing during PE. He’s a really good goalie but not as good as me. We did a one-on-one game before CoVid happened and guess who won? I did. Yay! I loved playing Soccer with him.Now we have another kid named Chris. He is very annoying (in a good way), loud, cute, funny, and I guess you could say dumb. He knows a boy in my class named Freddy (I’ll talk about him next), and he is a non-stop talker and he is legit annoying. Most of the time, he’s always getting into trouble with the teacher and she gets hella annoyed with him. He’s sent to the office at least everyday during Science. He says the most stupidest things and it’s really dumb. All the kids in that class always laughed and it got all of us into trouble. But overall, he’s nice.Ok now let’s talk about Freddy. Freddy is just like Chris. He is a very annoying student and he’s in three of my classes. In History, he always does the stupidest things and each time my teacher calls on him, he acts like as if he was listening and does this really stupid thing that we had to do in elementry you know when we had to sit and our hands are together. It annoys the hell out of my teacher. One thing that makes Freddy so interesting is how much energy he has. I mean like, sure all the guys I like have energy, he’s something else. Like he can run a mile in freaking 5:00 min and I’m not joking. He is hella wild and fast. Sure I’m fast but I ain’t that fast. My mile time is like 6:54 and that’s really sad.Next up is Nicholas. Nicholas was the first person I met at Santiago and was my first friend ’til I ditched him (…). He was very nice to me and he was pretty chill. He loved to draw anime and 3D. He’s very active, fast, very athletic, and he is cute. He loves basketball and he loves playing it. I used to play with him during lunch but then I stopped because of Aaliyah. Anyway, he has braces and he is really, really, really, nice smile.Jesse is next. Ok Jesse is kinda a weird person to talk about. He’s in my History class and he also knows Freddy. He is also like Freddy. He also does the most stupid things in class and also does this really weird voice that sounds like a little kid. Jesse recently confessed to me he liked me and I didn’t know what to say to be honest. I was kinda shocked because he had a girlfriend and he loved her. Jesse is really chill but he’s crazy to. I wanted to say I like him to but I never got the chance to thanks to CoVid.Lastly I have my very last crush, Alex. He’s really, really cute. I love the way he smiles. He has braces and since he is an 8th grader. He’s really nice.The first time I met him, he was looking through my backpack and he told me that his friend told him that his was mine. I never forgave him until like three weeks later. Alex tried his best to make me forgive him but I couldn’t. Until I finally approved him. Alex is really funny, nice, cute, fast, and cool.Ok that seems to wrap up 8th grade crushes. I would mention my 7th grade ones but I don’t want to remember them at all because they’re in the past and I need to move on from there.Ok now what to talk about… Oh Harry Potter yes!!!!Harry Potter is something I rarely talk about because (not being rude) people don’t ask decent questions and they sometimes ask stupid questions (also not being rude). But still I answer sometimes and I also have a lot to say. I’ve never really liked reading until I read the Harry Potter series. After that, I began obsessed with it and I loved watching it over and over again. I’ve watched it over 54 times and I’ve read the book over 34 times. I just love Harry Potter that much. The one book I read the most is Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. I just love that book so much I could just read that one over and over gian and I wouldn’t even stop.I hated how dark the series got though because from the 4th book, it went hella dark and I didn’t see why. I was so angry when Fred Weasley died in the last book. That was so not fair. Like J.K Rowling (I completely respect her) killed off 5 (well more like four) the best characters like Fred Weasley, Sirius Black, Albus Dumbledore, Cedric Diggory, and the saddest death of all time, Severus Snape.Urgh. It makes me so mad and sad that all of them died. I really feel bad for Snape though. He was never a bad guys but everyone thought he was (and I did to) but he was really just trying to protect Harry.3 Harry Potter characters I love:Draco Malfoy- I don’t get why people make him sound like a bitch. Ok maybe he kinda was a bitch but here’s the thing: he was a rotten child and very spoiled. His father was always tough on him while his mother was very keen on him. Just look at the very first book! WHen they go to Hogwarts, Malfoy does attempt to try and be friends with him but I guess J.K Rowling had other ideas (Sorry J.K Rowling) with him. In the end though, he does seem to make up (we don’t know for sure) with Harry.Sirius Black- Looking back in Snape’s memories, Sirius and James Potter always made fun of Snape. Black later on becomes Harry godfather and he is also the Potters secret keeper. But asking Peter Pettigrew to take his place was a huge mistake. After Lily and James Potter were killed, Peter was cornered by Black. By making his escape, he made sure that he blew something up and transformed. But past that, Black does escape from Azkaban and he goes to Hogwarts to get his revenge. But past that, he does get killed ( [ ; _ ; ] ) in the fifth book.Severus Snape- The Potions Professor. He was thought to be a villain but when looking into his past, you can see that he is very protective of Harry. Before he was killed, he told Harry his eyes were just like his mothers. Snape gave Harry his tears to look into his past. While watching it, you could see that Lily were best friends. When they both went to Hogwarts, Lily was put in Gryffindor and Snape was in Slytherin. When they both left Hogwarts and when Voldemort killed the Potter’s, Snape when there after he heard and when he saw Lily, you could see his reaction. Tears falling down.Harry Potter is such a magical book to read and It’s so addictive. I read all the books about 25 times and I memorized each character, spells, and quotes. I’m just so angry with how the series ended. I cried so much during the last book and movies because half of all the good characters died!!! *tears rolling down my cheek*Anyway, let’s move on to something else once more. Music? Eh why not.So my favorite type of music is Spanish Rap, Pop, Electronic, Rap Beats, Nightcore, Rap, Kpop, and sometimes slow meaningful songs. Music became a part of my life after 4th grade. I began writing, singing, and listening to music after I first listened to a song and I became so addicted.Ok I can name all the songs I listen to I think:Old Friends by Jasmine ThompsonBeautiful World by Leon ElseGet You The Moon by KinaCan I by TedyHow It Feels To Be Replaced by Alec BenjaminDemons by Alec BenjaminNeverland by ZendayaStill Fallin’ by Hunter HayesRunaway by AURORAPlease Don’t Go by Joel AdamsRemember This by NFFake Love by BTSSave Me by BTSON by BTSNO by BTSWe Are Bulletproof:The Eternal by BTSCinderella Girl by King and PrinceAnd any Nightcore songs there are to listen to.Oh. That’s not a lot of songs…I love Spanish Rap for no reason. Like for real, I actually don’t know why I like Spanish Rap.Pop is something I can listen to and dance to when I’m bored and I can sing along with it.Rap Beats are something I listen to just so I can think or get rid of angry thoughts. Nightcore is one type of music I adore listening to.Rap I just listen if I feel really bored and I think of things.Kpop I love because It just makes me feel happy and I can just dance to it freely.Slow Meaningful Songs make me relate to what is happening with me right now. I have a lot going on in my life so, listening to songs that mean something are the best.My music is a lot more different. I write lyrics that go to my past, friends, and current life right now. I’m working on a song for someone right now. This song is very not me. My music is very personal but I share because I want people to know how I feel and what happens in my life.Why not hobbies?My favorite things to do when I’m bored is Drawing, Playing Football, Writing, Writing Songs as well, Texting My Friends, and Talking on Quora. When it comes to drawing, I really enjoy doing Anime, People, and 3D. I’m really picky though when it comes to art. Same thing with everything organized. Everything has to be organized otherwise I’ll be distracted by cleaning up that mess instead of doing my work.One thing I do try to improve on is my skating. I got Skateboarding with my es. We have a strong bond still. Even after we broke up and I transferred schools. We got to the Skatepark at least every Friday to see who’s improved on their skating. I won last time because he ended up falling off his skateboard and he cheated. He tried so hard to make it look like he didn’t do anything wrong and tried to do a rematch. But in the end, I won. I think the last time I went skating was when I was 8. But I had an accident which caused me to stop and then I started using a scooter instead and I didn’t like it as much as I did with a skateboard. But I started again when I was 11 and I managed to start over and I actually got better than before when I was 8.My makeup is getting a lot better and I enjoy doing it to my cats because it’s funny and it’s fun.Oh god I’m running out of ideas!!!!!

else for my facts about me because I’m a boring person!!!AHHH!! My mind is going blank I’m about to just stop writing!! Uh..uh…uh…shit my mind is going blank. ANIME!!! I ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT MY ANIME!!!!!Ok. So I fell in love with anime after I read Black Butler. That was my very first anime and I loved reading it and watching it. Black Butler is my all time favorite anime (mostly because it was my first anime). After I read it, I decided to watch it and I swear, I loved it.It made me watch other animes such as Ouran High School Host Club (OHSHC), Sword Art Online, Death Note, A Silent Voice, Seven Deadly Sins, One Punch Man, Assassination Classroom, Naruto, Dragon Ball, Pokemon, etc. I love anime so much! Also, does Studio Ghibli count for anime? I mean, their Japanese so they should count right?I’ve watched all the Studio Ghibli movies, I love them. My all time favorite is between Totoro and Grave Of The Fireflies. Both of them make me feel emotional (mostly Grave of the Fireflies) because they’re both sad.Crap I got nothing else. Let me see…how about I do my favorite Quorans? If I write about them, I would just go on non-stop and it would be way to confusing so I’ll just make it a lot more easier if I just put all their names together and say what I want to say about all of them even though this says: Can You Write A Long Answer? and I mean I would but like meh.

I love reading all of your answers and all of them are so inspiring. I love how creative each of you are and I’m jealous I don’t have your creativity. Most of my answers are non-sense and it’s stupid. I love each of your guys interests and every time I read a new answer each of you write, I become even more inspired. I love all of your answers guys.As days go by, I think to myself that I don’t want to leave Quora but I have to.
