Re: 看国外的课程体现的差距 不可能,我听我同学说,他们的选修课非常多,但他一般都只选择他感兴趣的课程,有很多都没有选。他们最重要的是每周的读书报告,一般就相当于一篇小paper.

Re: 看国外的课程体现的差距 只是一间Columbia,进来的本科生一年就能学十三门……我真是蠢得没救了。 ================================================== Columbia本来就是top大学 学这么多不奇怪 漫漫长夜不知晓 日落云寒苦终宵 痴心未悟拈花笑 梦魂飞度同心桥 ------------------------------------------------- 红叶晚萧萧,长亭酒一瓢 残云归太华,疏雨过中条 树色随山迥,河声入海遥 帝乡明日到,犹自梦渔樵
