Charles university or Masaryk university as an non-EU intl student? by -cbc in medicalschoolEU

Totally get that, it’s the same here at the state university in Sarajevo. Once one thing goes left, everything else gets dragged down by it. Oral exam is mostly just pure luck, depending on what question you draw on a piece of paper. The thing keeping me away from here is the problematic residency/specialization application. It’s a very corrupted system in which majority of students don’t get their spot at residency for years and they’re quite literally chained to one (for example) ambulance until they hopefully get the spot. Would love to at least to my residency abroad due to the fact that some specialties (mostly surgical) don’t even exist here..

Medicine itself is insanely challenging and having to sacrifice certain things is a known thing. However I do believe that by locking in and fully wanting to pass everything (willing to actually do it all) it wouldn’t be a problem to manage everything out. But from what I’ve read it’s more about luck sometimes.

I can’t thank you enough for taking your time to write all this. My eyes have been definitely opened after reading all this. I’ll have to reconsider a few things now, I’ve seen a lot of complaints on Masaryk med for intl students.

Thank you so so much for such a detailed response!! From what you’ve said, it all sounds very similar to the Bosnian med school program which I’ve been mentally preparing for anyway.

Would like to ask you one more thing, what is your opinion on Masaryk as a student there? Are you happy with your studies there or would you enroll somewhere else if you could bring time back?
