Masaryk or Palacky

So I just recently took my Czech exams for Palacky and Masaryk passed and got an offer from both unis. Since I haven't been to visit either of them I was wondering which one was better and which is likely to have more international students and students from the uk.
What's the main differences between the two?? And what's the environment like in the cities that they're in.

Can you share how was Palacky's exam in comparison to Masaryk for Bio/Chem/Phy or Maths ?

The chemistry exam for Palacky was much easier than Masaryks just basic calculations. I think the biology was just as hard as each other, and both of the maths are mainly just problem solving hardly any a level stuff. Both probably on the same level aswell

Thanks ! As I understand one was to get 3 out 5 in maths. What specific topics were covered in Maths and what is the total cut-off percentage required to clear. I know in Masaryk it is 60%.

Yeah for Palacky the past mark is 55% in each paper and 60% overall for Masaryk, and like i said there wasn't really specific topics for maths, it was mainly just problem solving, I do a2 maths and nothing like that comes up

Are there any particular topics we need to concentrate on for biology? Apparently that part was very difficult.. Is it anything like the sample papers put up?

Thanks in advance for your help :smile:

Is this for Masaryk or Palacky, there's past papers of the Masaryk exam I could send you, for chemistry id just say focus on calculations such a ph and amount of substance for the Masaryk exam your not allowed a periodic table so make sure you know all the masses and atomic numbers
