<p>“Of course, if you can learn enough Mandarin to get to China–you’d probably give yourself the equivalent of an octane boost to your career. More than half the world’s cranes are currently in use in China. That’s where the big action is for your geneneration.”</p>
<p>Cheers, that’s really encouraging. Until now I’m really concerned about my chances of getting a good paying job once I graduate. From your comment though I’m beginning to think there’s a lot of chance out there.
I never expect the mandarin I learned will really come in handy. I just did it cuz I like it. I’m polishing my mandarin now and I’m on my way to learn korean and japanese soon.</p>
<p>Btw can anyone tell me if language skills will help my chances transferring to top schools? (considering the fact that I cant rely on my 3.0 gpa)</p>
