<p>Hi, I'll be a freshman next year at Michigan and I was hoping someone here can tell me a bit more about the Asian language programs. Currently I'm deciding between taking Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Does anyone have experience with any of the programs? Each appeals to me for a different reason- Chinese because of its practicality and the country's history, Japanese for similar reasons (and I think I'd rather travel to Japan than China), and Korean because I've heard it's relatively easier than the others and I have a lot of Korean friends. I would take Japanese, but I'm concerned that it might be too difficult. I've also heard from a couple people who took Japanese at UM and did not enjoy it. Does anyone have a more positive experience with the program? Also, if anyone has feedback on the Chinese or Korean programs it would be much appreciated!</p>
