Get out quickly, get out quickly. I've been studying here for 1 year, living in a Korean person's house (marketed as a "dormitory") a 10-minute walk away. It turns out people play games and argue very loudly, and no one can control them at all. A regular house crammed with so many people makes it impossible to study. I asked previous cohorts, and almost no one got into the top 30.

I'm very glad I finally came to St. John's. At the time, many schools made me indecisive. Ultimately, I chose St. John's because I valued its geographical location and its robotics team. After arriving, I was pleasantly surprised by St. John's sports. I personally love playing tennis in my home country, and St. John's tennis courts are truly excellent! Also, St. John's is quite large, but its resources are utilized very reasonably. The library rivals some universities. The teachers at St. John's are also great. When I first arrived, they very enthusiastically helped me, ensuring I understood the knowledge points. After school, when I went to them, they were willing to tutor me, so I progressed very quickly. I'm really happy I chose St. John's!

I really loved my time at St. John's High School!

As a freshman in 9th grade, it took some time to adapt to the school, but the overall learning and life experience have been great. All the teachers are very eager to see you succeed, and the school, in particular, provides an excellent environment for the academic success of new international students.
