Mandarin is a very difficult language to master, and it may take more than one university break to achieve even basic competency. But it really depends; do you want to achieve oral fluency or writing/reading fluency? The former will take long, but the latter is akin to offering your soul to the...

Thanks guys! I'm feeling a lot better about next year now. Just a question on English, what's the biggest difference between junior and senior English (I'm doing 3U next year)? I keep seeing these scary exponential graphs which show the increase of difficulty in English so...
