Hello! I'm applying too, what are you going for medicine or dentistry? Are you planning on living in halls or finding private accommodation?

Hiya I'm will be applying for either dentistry or medicine. Are you flying out to Brno to do the exam? I am doing my exam in London in July. Planning to live in halls for the 1st year - hoping to fly out in Aug to have a look at the Masaryk Uni.

Oh cool I'm applying for dentistry :biggrin:
I'm going to do mine in London too, I don't want to live in halls because they don't have en-suite rooms lol so I'll be looking for private accommodation :/

To be honest I need to look into halls- if no en-suite may have to change my plans. Are you been to visit Masaryk uni?

Hello! I'm apply to Masaryk for medicine and will be taking the exam in June (i think) :smile: I too have heard the halls aren't very nice so am contemplating other options. I've seen on other threads from previous years that there is an option for what we would probably call private halls...not really sure though! If anyone has any info please let me know!

Small world! Not yet I have the documents to fill in though, whats your story why are you applying abroad anyway?

I am a graduate with a biomed degree so tried to get into dentistry via graduate entry which proved difficult so I am applying to the Czech.

Nice meeting you too! Good to know someone locally thinking the same lol

I know! I think there are 3 people from Northampton on this thread lol I am also a graduate did biomed and was initially deciding between a MSc or med by the time I was sure it was way past the oct deadline so thought instead of waiting another year then applying I should go abroad as both would take 6 years! :smile: plus I lie the idea of living abroad I guess living in Northamptonshire you might understand why lol

do you intend to do the revision courses available?
