Lots of memorizing, less thinking

At this university, you need to memorize tons of information - most of it you will never ever use + you will forget it right after the exam. Students are not encouraged to use their brains and to come up with their own solutions, but to just absorb the information the teacher gives them. I got As and Bs but haven't learn almost anything.

encourage to study in charles university

My name is Bashar Ali, I am a medicine student in the first year. Today I am going to share my experience in Charles university. As a new student I was confused at the beginning of the year but after not long time I got used to the university system and the university stuff was very helpful starting from professional and nice teachers and ending with office employees. For me the academic side was perfect and my experience was very good. The university provide us with valuable information and we can find a lot of different students from different parts of the world so we can meet people from different cultures. I lived in the dorms and for me it was good because it was safe, clean and cheap. Now I am very happy in my studies especially that the university degree is recognized all over the world in addition that it is one of the highest ranking in the world in conclusion, Charles University offers a world-class medical education that combines rigorous academics, exceptional clinical training, and abundant research opportunities

Quality and experience!

I can say I am completely different from before and after AAU. At some point I wondered but now without even noticing I can see my knowledge has improved a lot. I say seamless because it is not the traditional type of learning, you learn through hands on projects, in class discussions, real world scenarios, interactive sessions and becomes part of your day to day life and interests. I 100% Recommend AAU to anyone who wants to experience a life-long a real international community and learn in the process while having the time of your life in Europe!
