This past week was the Gaokao, which is the huge test all Chinese take to see who gets into college. Basically everything people have studied their whole life comes down to this! How is it similar to the SATs, and how is it different?
I already knew you speak perfect chinese but it still amazes me everytime i hear you speak chinese... I want your advice on how to learn chinese for those who can't go to full time universities
Thanks man! I should do some sort of Chinese learning series... my first advice is to take advantage of Chinese language shows on youtube and bilibili.com and just get some listening practice in! You can pick topics you would have enjoyed watching about in any language and give them a try. Also, there are some good social media channels now devoted to learning at a basic level too!
@@jesseappell6674 That’s my advice as well. Your content has helped me a ton as I study Chinese! I’ve just learned off RU-vid and after getting a foundation, I’m just watching my favorite channels such as yours! I do recommend a good grammar book, too. My go to is Modern Mandarin Chinese Grammar: A Practical Guide published by Routledge.
I graduated from UC Berkeley after transferring from community college. They didn’t even ask for my SATs (thankfully) because I had done community college work. So in that sense, if one is open to going the community college route, that takes a lot of pressure off the SATs. Also, I’m hearing that now, the UCs aren’t really going to be looking at the SATs anymore. So, things are definitely changing.
No matter the test level, i can relate to this. And laugh, which is very much appreciated and needed. Xie Xie Ai Jesse. (Is that how you spell that in English?)
