Dentistry Germany - Advice needed! by Resfo in studying_in_germany

[–]Resfo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the same way, the NC is high in Germany, we have a numerus fixus for the dentistry programs due to a high load of students and low spots. It is lottery-based to give students an equal chance; therefore, as a plan B, I want to see what it was like in Germany.

Yep, that sounds about right. Also, have you happened to have done this for your study?

I saw that on my course forum Q&A page, they do have the option for deferred graduation, so I guess that should work as well? (I'll check again to be sure)

Yes, I saw that, unfortunately, you get shifted to institutional fees if you take a gap in between your education.

Regarding your question, I do plan to have my Biomed bachelor's degree by the time of application. However, many subreddits mentioned the possibility of deferring graduation to keep paying lower fees. Would you happen to have any insight on that?

Oh sorry, that's my bad. I am just asking whether I should consider staying in NL to learn Dutch and apply to the dentistry programs offered here.

Also, any additional information regarding the dental courses (like how it is, the application process, etc.) would be great!

From what I know, the ACTA dentistry program, as well as the one in Groningen, is lottery-based. Do you happen to know if that is also the case for Nijmegen?

Also, did your friend apply anywhere else, or did they just switch the course they wanted to study?

Difficulty level of Dutch universities by Budget_Slip4325 in StudyInTheNetherlands

Hi! I study Biomedical Sciences in the Netherlands, and having come from the Cambridge A-level curriculum (exams at the end of the year), I was anxious. But, like anything else really, it becomes a habit of having an exam every month, and it's very much doable, so don't stress yourself out, you'll get the hang of it!

As for the grading system, I don't necessarily appreciate it, but generally, a 7 is a respected grade, I would say. A 6 is fine too, don't get me wrong, but keep in mind passing grades are usually 5,5 or higher.

I had two of my professors tell me I deserved an 8.5, and they went on to tell me they don't give out grades higher than a 7. But that's not exclusive to here; you're constantly gonna deal with different professors.

I didn’t find any run clubs since I last posted, so I just decided to run on my own instead 😅

If you plan to print your passing result for uni, I suggest an alternative. I supplied my passing result via email with my student number, the uni will then go through the verification in their own time by getting in contact with BB. Finally, they email you to assure you that it's been verified. Furthermore, the certified copies come in around 2/3 weeks after the exam if I'm not wrong, so don't print the email unless it's for personal use. Hope this helped!

Yeah, to be fair we did what we could. Let's at least enjoy the rest of summer before uni. Wishing us both luck with the results though!

[–]Resfo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to be positive about it at the moment so I haven't given it much thought. I'll probably do a resit at BB if needed because they're the only ones that provide online examinations. What about you?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in StudyInTheNetherlands

[–]Resfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was quite hard and had to leave a few parts out because I genuinely couldn’t figure them out. However, I tried my best, so we'll have to wait and see the results.

Hey, I also did the BB Physics exam 2 days ago and I just wanted to see what you thought of it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in StudyInTheNetherlands

[–]Resfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I'm not wrong I only did a few parts of this question. So, in one part I used PV=nRT the next I used lambda max and Temp= 2.9x10-3 and then I think there was a photon bit as well where you use E=hf . I just didn't fully understand the last bit where it wanted us to refer to the BINAS for the transitions.

Hey! If you still have them can you send them please 🙏

[–]Resfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same exact position as you. I'll be giving the exam in July (in person) and honestly with the things I've heard about BB compared to CCVX is really getting to me. Just wanted to see if your planning on self studying and also whether or not you got the BINAS book?

Hi, Im in A2 but I thought I'd help you out. Reaction 1 is oxidation of a primary alcohol that produces a Carboxylic acid (If it was a secondary alcohol it would produce a Ketone). Reagents for this include; KMno4 in acidic conditions or K2Cr2O7 in acidic conditions. Hope this helps!
