It's already my last week in Beijing. School has kept us pretty busy these last few days. For the Population Aging and Health course, we had to do a group presentation worth 20% of our grade. Only one of the group members have to present, so the group leader in my group presented this morning. He did really well. There is also a 3,000 word term paper worth 40% of the final grade due August 20th, which is 2 weeks after the program ends. The other 40% consists of class participation and discussion.
For the Chinese course, we had a final exam yesterday. There are a total of 6 levels and I have friends in different ones. All of my friends had an oral test, but for my class, we had a written test instead. It consisted of 4 parts: listening, dictation, completing the sentence using the given word, and a short composition. It was easier than I expected... much easier than Berkeley's Chinese courses that I've taken.
Today was my last day of classes at Peking University. It's nice to be finish with school. The workload has been light for the courses I took here. Therefore, I had a lot of time to relax, hang out with friends, and enjoy Beijing life. Now I shall get started on my term paper. Hopefully, I will finish writing it before I leave Beijing because I probably won't have time to write it while traveling around Asia.
