My personal comment on school

  1. I have a friend thinking about applying -- how likely is he to get in? He graduated from high school with the equivalent of about 3.0 US GPA, but he speaks Hungarian very well. Would he have to take that course you mentioned under Pre-med? He is interested in dental work

  2. Hi Unknown, actually I am in Turkey and in this blog I have shared the summary of my personal research about med schools in Europe. The guy that can enlighten you -and your friend- with real life experiences about Semmelweis is this guy:
    http://budapeststudent.com/about/oystein
    You can get in contact with him over the contact page of the web site above. He is pretty much sharing and loves to help newcomers:)

    Hope this helps. Anytime for any other question, I am here.. good luck for your friend.

    Oh, by the way, you can find some other Semmelweis students in ValueMD as well, but be careful about the website, there are guys hanging out there under the disguse of "med students" who may try to cater you to inappropriate, low quality schools. They earn money over newbies like your friend, so just be careful.
