After walking for about 1.5 hour and the weather isn't very helpful (we feel so warm in the hanbok!), so we decided to go back and return it. After which, we went for dinner near-by 치맥 is the best after a long walk!! The beer is damn refreshing and chicken is damn nice! not like what we had back in Singapore 😂
Day 3 - Placement test and Shopping Day!!
I went for the placement test in the morning, which I guess the test did somehow surprised me as I didn't know what and how the test would be like. But I guess I did pretty well?? ㅋㅋㅋ
So the test consist of 51 open-ended questions where you have to fill it up by writing. The duration given was 75 min, but you don't have to finish doing the paper. Just do until you can't answer the questions. After which you will go for an interview with the teacher there and they will mark your paper and ask you some basic questions then tell you which level is suitable for you.
After the test, went back dorm for lunch then we headed for shopping~
