Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
Try to choose the courses that most interest you ( although it is not easy if you have to transfer them-this is what happened to me!). Ask previous student what courses they took and the amount of work you have to do for them!

Final comments
Try to travel as most as you can. South Korea is in the middle of asia: you are one hour flight from Beijing, one from Tokyo, Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam are quite close too! It would be a good opportunity to spend your summer holidays here if you come for the Spring Term!
