Testimonials
What to study?
„I took the prep course to better my knowledge in biology and chemistry, and prepare for the entrance exam to the university. I felt that my American high school education did not give me the knowledge I needed to go to the university, so I wanted to spend time on these subjects with people who knew exactly what it is I need to know.”
Madeleine, 2023 intake
How much is enough?
“I took the prep course because I wanted the best possible ability to pass the entrance exam, to know exactly what was in the course and in how much depth my knowledge needed to be. In addition I wanted to be able to ask in-depth questions. My main motivation to join the class was to deepen my understanding in different topics in both biology and chemistry.”
Zelda, 2022 intake
Excellent time management
„I took a course due to the entrance exams which I had to pass for study in the University of Veterinary Medicine. Due to the limit of time and complexity of the exams, I decided to take a preparation course. As a person, who passed exams, I can say that I have very positive impression of the prep course. It definitely increases the chances to get admitted, surely if the applicant has his own motivation.”
