(no subject)
I just got out of a German as a foriegn language exam at the university. If you pass, you don't have to take German language classes anymore. Our grammar teacher (a German, teaches us through Smith College) told us that the man who gives the exams says that he always knows the American students because we are always the first finished with our exams. Probably because we are have to take so many exams growing up. Well, I didn't really make much of my teacher's statement, but of the first 13 people to leave the exam to day (out of perhaps 200?), 12 of us were Americans.
