ええ is less formal than はい. Typically, はい is what you'd see in a sentence like your sample sentence.

Finally, you've got your English screwed up in your last conversation, too, so I can't correct your Japanese.
"Michiko, are you...?
No, Michiko is..."

See how you messed up the English?
sorry I copied the sentences wrong. Is Michiko a fourth- year student? That's the right sentence from the book.


Planning on saving y leave to take a trip to japan !! ( Researching right now though)
