Student review [#20967] for Medicine
at University of Groningen - RUG

Even though I expected the workload in Medicine to be extremely high, there is a ridiculous number of pages that make up the weekly reading material. Of course, to put the cherry on top, it took me 2 months to actually learn how to orient myself in this monstrosity of a website they call Nestor. Nevertheless, once you figure out your way, you actually have the chance to appreciate the helpful professors, and the structure of the course, as topics are grouped together in a comprehensible manner. Once the adjustment period is over, the university experience is pretty straightforward, but still with prioritization of quantity of chapters over the quality of understanding, due to limited time. Also, as an international student, I feel like most of the professors are inclusive and welcoming, especially the coordinator of the English-speaking Learning Community.
