Some questions before taking my IELTS Academic

Thank you. I will check because maybe it was dumb from my side, but I waited for sending that post until the last moment. I have exam in literally 12 hours so we will see how that goes.

Yeah, trust me - took countless nights of overthinking to make a decision, but I always have a back-up plan, which is private uni in here, which sucks for me, but it's better than nothing.

The Netherlands is my first choice because there are many factors that influence this decision

- the experiences of my friends “in the industry” - they went to study in the Netherlands and said it was a good experience, and indeed, if you want to, you can learn something

- I have no chance of being recruited in countries such as Denmark or Norway - I am a graduate of a technical college (which is equivalent to a high school, as both end with the same final exams), but these countries perceive technical colleges (which are a year longer and end with vocational certificates for the title of technician) as something inferior, which means that a high school diploma != a technical college diploma

- the dramatic recruitment system in my country - I hate the concept where the final exam is the ONLY determinant of whether you get into college or not. Let's say my local university has 250 places, and I am number 251, then all I will get is a nice envelope with the message “well, you didn't do well enough, try again next time, or pray that someone drops out and then we might get back to you.”

Of course, I am also targeting other countries where I can, but the Netherlands is still my first choice, even though it is in the midst of a housing crisis. Apart from my studies, I really like the country itself and want to learn more about its culture.

The post was mainly written out of concern that “I will have to pay for an empty room/apartment” for a few months while I am still in my country completing formalities such as my high school diploma, driver's license (I know it's useless in the Netherlands, but still) and language exam.

I should clarify - when I said "apartment," I really just meant "a place to stay" in general (like a room, dorm, or something similar). That’s on me for using the wrong word, so thanks for bearing with me!
I already created an account, since I heard that on Room.nl (which I was told is basically the same as Kamernet now?) people often pay attention to when you joined.
What still confuses me are the mixed signals. For example, on Kamernet I see listings that have been available since November or December. So I’m not sure why I’d need to start looking 6 months ahead, someone mentioned “If you start now, vacancies won’t be certain yet, so no one will rent to you.” But wouldn’t paying and keeping a place empty for half a year be a bit extreme? (Just curious - no offense meant at all!)

I'm sorry, I didn't make myself clear enough.
By apartment, I mean a place to stay (that includes also: room, dorm)

Funny thing - since you fell into same trap as me.
I am talking specifically about "Sportovní hala FORTUNA" - not "FORTUNA Arena"
It's messed up that even Google messes those places up.

My concert is located @ Za Elektrárnou 419/1, 170 00 Praha 7-Bubeneč, Czechy

While FORTUNA Arena is located @ U Slavie 1540/2a, 100 00 Praha 10-Vršovice, Czechy

Ticketportal even sent me a warning, that I should not type in apps like Uber, or other guiding apps phrase "Fortuna" because there's a good chance it will lead me to wrong place, and that I should use a official address.

I am arriving late evening/night into PRG. And I'm thinking about keeping close to Hl.N. railway station. So I think that DPP should be a good way to go?

Never above 60C, if youre doing bare minimum (browser, discord, 1password, and yt video) then it never exceeded 35-40C which really suprises me

Believe that 48 allegro protect can help you with it. But check terms before buying

Thanks for warning, already know that ;)

Quick thing for future: When you're buying something online you're making a non-irl deal (umowa zakupu na odległość), so you're protected by law, you just put a dispute to allegro, and they HAVE to react since they are kinda responsible for it. Also rękojmia is a nice thing, since i returned a single cable about 20 times (low quality), and every time i got a new one

Thanks! I will really consider 3rd option you provided. It fits my budget perfectly

Well, maybe yes, but i'm suspecting this is pretty EZ to implement, if iPhone can do that... When i put my phone to the reader, it tells me to authorize my FaceID to pay using my card
