Compare and contrast the college experience of the Japanese with that from one other country
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: The college years are meant to be a time to relax and engage in leisure for the Japanese. Getting into college is extremely competitive, so in many ways they have already proven themselves. Likewise, the working world requires long hours, so this time is meant to be a break in the responsibility and pressure that accompanies other periods of their lives. In Canada, depending upon the province, students may take an extra year to prepare for college (CEJEP). The first two years of college consist of taking general education courses. The cost of going to college is also much less, as it is subsidized by the government (note: some of this info on Canada was not in the text; students will draw from their experience and knowledge).
