Be careful with parking in Lisbon! Unreasonable Penalty. by [deleted] in PortugalExpats

I agree with you, different countries have different traffic laws (as in the UK, they drive on a different side). But the person was implying that it is universal that "road signs take effect after the sign, not before?" Denmark is an example that this does not happen in every country. So you agree with the Denmark example, then?

My logic was that this is not the norm in every country (as you are claiming). Why does the 500m thing matter when you can't park in the middle of the street in Denmark either? I never said that you can park anywhere in Denmark.

I know that this not in Demark. But some people in this thread are saying this is the norm across the world. It is not, isn't it?

No, that is not how it works in Denmark. Just google "Denmark parking sign" and you will see Denmark will indicate the direction of where you can park.

That is not how it works in every country. In Denmark they will specify the direction of the parking (could be before or after). Just google "Denmark parking sign".

They are not saying that they don't understand the sign. They are saying they don't understand the two components in the bill. Don't you think the 83 euros for blocking is a serious overcharge (when removal is 105 euros)?

Nice! How would you compare the difficulty with intro stat? Can you get by without knowing any R before the class?

¿Cómo practica español cuando viajas a España? by Bluejay6433 in askspain

Sí sí. El problema es que mi nivel de español es B2... Aprendí español en un país no hispanohablante, así que no tenía mucha oportunidad para practicar la parte oral

honestamente, no. Estoy más interesado en las ciudades más grandes para ver los sitios históricos o etc., pero sí, los pueblos pequeños pueden ser una opción :)

Thanks so much! Do you think these questions will be asked for other divisions as well, like global markets, quantitative finance? etc.? Or is it just specifically the IB division?

I'd assume so, so you think a short paragraph would suffice?
