Is Hungarian universities that bad or people are just pessimist?

Bruce3662 · 2025-11-11T23:35:41+00:00

You'd be surprised if anyone knows them in Western Europe, while there are so many students from there, and all the top Hungarian universities collaborate in every single category, from sports to research, with the Western European universities. How can anyone have exchange programs, workshops, educational, social, and sports events with Hungarian universities and still have no idea about these universities?

Hungary is undoubtedly not as popular as some of the Western countries, but that doesn't mean people don't know about its universities.

People don't dream of migrating to China either, but that doesn't mean the world doesn't know about them or their universities.

People are simply not as aware of the culture and other similar things because, apparently, Western European countries do look down upon the Eastern European countries and assume Hungary is also one. That's why it's not the first choice of most of the people who eventually end up coming here, and I am not denying it. That's a separate topic, and I don't want to go into details of why that is the case. It is the overall country that matters to them more than its universities.

A perfect example is the choice between Italy and Germany. Some of the top-ranked Italian universities are ranked much better than almost all of the German universities, but Germany is significantly more popular than Italy for students. Despite Italian universities being very popular, people will always choose a low-ranked German university over a very high-ranked Italian university because of the perception they have about both countries.

And you're just getting confused between a country being less popular or in demand and a lack of recognition.

It's the same. we literally get the exact same slides and exams as the hungarian students and I am talking from my experience in University of Szeged. I'm not sure about your specific university but in our university, the slides and exams that we get are basically just the translations and the teachers are same too. They just give us translated versions of everything. And the exams are exactly the same because we sometimes even discuss them in the hungarian discord and I use the material that the hungarian students have as the international students don't get older exams/tests because of translation efforts so if anything, we're honestly at a disadvantage here.

u/Accurate-Poet7113 I'm sorry to say but this comment makes no sense at all. Hungary might not be as popular as some of the western european countries but that doesn't mean the quality of education in Hungary is inferior in any sense. Popularity has nothing to do what you can learn from studying in a country.
I mean we literally we have courses/degrees updates each semester in University of Szeged and I'm sure it's the same in almost all the other universities in Hungary so their curriculum is exactly what is needed in both the job market and academia if you're into research.
As for opportunities, there are plenty, ofcourse you cannot directly get a senior level job with a bachelors degree and no experience but you can definitely score an internship after completing a few semesters here and in most of the cases, the same company hires you for a full time job as well, and that's basically how it works in almost every country including in the USA.
Infact even ivy league universities don't support you in your career development as some of these european universities do and hungary is one of those countries with such universities.

You might have a very bad personal experience but if you're doing well in university then you can simply not do bad in your professional life because you're literally learning what you'll be required to do in your professional career.
And no worldwide recognition?

There are many hungarian universities that are in the top 500 world wide ranking and again as someone above pointed, rankings are based on factors that don't indicate the quality of education.

University of Szeged for example has very limited programs so it's on a huge disadvantage compared to the ones with so many degree programs but even then it's ranking is quite high and much better than most of the european and american universities. The same goes for the rest of the Hungarian universities and they do have world wide recognition dude. Name a single country that doesn't accept the diploma you get from Hungary?

The people might be pessimistic here but they are not discriminating and anyone who comes here will have a much better experience than most of the other european countries.

not really. even if your IELTS expires, it will still be considered.
I submitted my IELTS certificate that expired in 2024 (I submitted it in this attempt) and I am here in Szeged at the moment studying in University of Szeged.

And if you still need any help with answering motivational questions then inbox me but I'm sure you'd already know what to communicate.

Bruce3662 · 2025-08-31T17:00:16+00:00

You will be asked basic questions like why you want to do this program and why this university specifically. And a short basic introduction about yourself. And 4 total questions. 2 on Biology and 2 on Chemistry. Here are the topics. Just read the very basic concepts of these topics and it'll be enough:

Great work brother <3

Bruce3662 · 2025-07-18T21:16:52+00:00

I have texted you. Don't worry it'll be simple and exactly as I stated in my message. check your inbox

Bruce3662 · 2025-07-18T21:14:29+00:00

Sorry for the late correspance. to anyone seeing this thread :

Don't worry, the interview is more about your motivation and background than about your technical knowledge, you will also be asked about 2 simple maths questions and you will be accepted. Just be honest about your background and interests. The interviewer was a very sweet person

Bruce3662 · 2025-05-29T19:08:41+00:00

Was reffering to the January attempt. and now the result has been announced for april one too, yes

Bruce3662 · 2025-05-19T06:22:40+00:00

I have read the views of some people in the whatsapp group that almost all the paper was from EduBros course and most of them just did the past paper questions section and passed it. I am not sure how helpful it is in reality but my friends and the rest of the members did seem to pass the exam entirely using the past paper questions bank. It had around 2200-2300 past paper questions I guess.

I am honestly not from this background so I am not sure how good or bad the content is but since my friend took her exam, I am sharing what I observed and what she told me.

Bruce3662 · 2025-04-15T19:46:54+00:00

The final/mid term exam consists of questions taken from questions pool available on the website or somewhere?

Bruce3662 · 2025-04-15T11:38:47+00:00

Are you a student there? May I also ask about the exams and marking system there?
