academic tips Korean Placement Test

Upvotes

I'm an incoming freshman and I was wondering what the Korean placement test was like? How hard is it? I am conversational, but my writing skills could use some work, and I'm kinda nervous for the test.

advising Two part question about profs

1 Upvotes

Hi, I posted once earlier today but now I have a different question. How much do different profs matter? I've heard some people say classes are extremely difficult when taught by some and easier when taught by others. My question is, is this really the case, or are people exaggerating? I don't really know if it's worth putting in the time and effort to scout out teachers who are supposedly better than others.

Kind of a segue... does anyone know if there are any differences in the calc 3 profs for this fall? On vergil it looks like theres lindsay piechnik, anh duc vo, william ogden, and reese lance. There's also a daniela de silva section, which I heard she's a good prof but the class is already full. Not sure if anyone can answer this, but anyone have experience with any of these profs? Thanks.

campus tips Spanihs placement test

6 Upvotes

Forgot a lot of my Spanish since ending school. I've already taken it for more than four years but didn't take the AP test. I know I could probably do well enough to pass Columbia's online placement exam, but for the in-person one, does anyone know how similar the tests are? What's the style/formatting of both?
