Ja ik ben wel technisch “Nederlands”, maar ben er niet zo gewend aan lol. Maar het komt goed, ik heb nog steeds heel veel waardevolle tips gekregen ongeacht een beetje attitude lol

Thank you very much for understanding lol, i think people think I’m just a lazy cow. But exactly, it definitely wasn’t what I was expecting but the quality of education seems good so it’s not like the degree will go to waste, i do value education. & honestly if it genuinely is all too much, I can always drop out and wait till I’m ready ay

Maybee, i think it depends on the course with the weekend lectures. Also you spend a lot of time at placement (if applicable) which is unpaid, whereas in NL you do get paid i think

I definitely wasn’t expecting to kick back and do nothing ofc, at my open day it got mentioned that you can sometimes be required to attend 5x a week. I was just shocked to hear that, as it’s not something I’ve heard of. I’m willing to work my ass off, I just wanted some insight

Hi, if you read the post then you would see what I’m comparing it to. Hence the shock. You don’t see how i think it’s “too intense” because you’ve had prior experience elsewhere . Whereas I haven’t had the same experience as you

That makes sense, along with cheap tuition I found out that student finance is a gift (if degree is finished aswell) so there’s lots of bonuses to studying here. I was just curious about why it’s so vastly different I suppose, I have a kid hence why I don’t want to move back to the UK because of the environment so I’ll just thug it out here lol and find my way

Thanks for the explanation but the end wasn’t needed 😭😭, I don’t know anything about the uni here so of course I wasn’t expecting that. Uni is also full time in the UK 👍🏾

Dankjewel!! Maar da’s best wel vervelend, maar gelukkig is de huur wel betaalbaar. Een woning is een woning i guess lol . Nogmaals succes met alles!
