The first week in Shanghai is over. The question why I am actually doing this remains open for now. It makes quite a difference to visit or live in this city. At the moment, this city is just very hot, loud, dirty and overcrowded. Such a big difference to the beauty of Vancouver in the summer. Being here for a while makes you realize how beautiful other places could be.
The first classes at CEIBS will start tomorrow. I am looking forward to my first lectures here in Shanghai and to see how they are here. In particular, as it seems that I have to take more classes as any other exchange student at CEIBS. I have had a dispute with the Sauder MBA office for the last three month. I overloaded my schedule in a previous period to free up my schedule during the exchange and now I should still take more classes. That is so ridiculous.
They even enforced that rule after I told them that they are acting fully against my personal interest as I would prefer to have more time to network with local companies and learn the language. It seems that Sauder does not value customer satisfaction very high - not very smart.
Anyways, to study in Vancouver has big advantages....but sometimes the School just sucks. But I guess that is the case with every school. Let's see how it goes at CEIBS.
