    How is the academic life at the GIST International College?

    Basically, it's not really tough. Not to say very easy, because nothing is easy in this world. Moreover, the purpose of study is to have a better life in the future.
    There are also have quite a lot of assignments, but u can ask the lecturers regarding the assignment if it is not clear enough.
    The professors will give the mark description of the assignments. Therefore, the students can know how the assignment will be marked. The professors know our name. We just need to write our student ID in the assignment and the professors will mark it fairly.
    Furthermore, the students are active in the class. They also ask questions if they do not understand about the lecture or the assignments.
    There is no competition among students happening here. It is because college life is not to compete, but it is to learn and improve the skills which we have and use it in the future.
    We also always spend our time with the professors outside of the class. For example, hiking, travelling around suzhou downtown .

    Tell us about your overall experience in studying in China

    Yes, I like to study in China.
    It is because my Chinese is not really good and I've improved a lot since I came to China.
    In China, we also can create new friends with the local Chinese. They are very friendly and like to make friends with foreigners like us.
    Studiying in Suzhou is quite safe.. Suzhou generally looks like Singapore..
