I think most if not all universities abroad are 6 years Because you do 1 year internship. Isn't too bad tbh. you can take the year out and try again or go straight abroad and either one you'll be done in 6 years.

I've searched alot of universities abroad, if you wanna know anything just ask:smile:

from what I understand, we can go straight to F2 after graduating but I believe that you can also apply to F1 if you want.

Why?

Why?

Olomouc - garbage
Student halls - garbage
Neo Nazis - too many
Professors level of English - zero
student rights - non existent
chances of failing the first year? - 70%

yep, but there are over 1000 pages of powerpoint slides for exams - it is possible to pass - but unless you get past papers off an upper year, you will fail.

Oh, thanks for letting me know btw. I'm currently choosing between palacky and plovdiv in bulgaria and heard bulgaria is reallyyyy disorganised. I really want to study medicine and my only option is to go abroad. And it's quite hard to get info on the universities

Plovdiv, you are more likely to pass the course but Palacky has a better international reputation. Pm me if you have any questions

Aren't I better off in palacky then? And just work hard? It is medicine after all? And thanks, I'll PM you with more questions:smile:

look people pass the first year at palacky, some don't - it is made to be a filter year, but dont think its about how hard you work - its about who you know and how lucky you get

Do people get thrown out of other years too? Or is it mostly the first year?
