Thinking of Studying Medicine in Poland

philipphilip

Hi guys,

I am almost convinced to Study Medicine in Poland. I know there is a Polish University representative here in Dublin. They offer 6 MD program through English at Collegium Medicum in Bydgoszcz where I can still apply.
Has anyone any experience of studying medicine in Poland or applying for this year ?

I know guys who applied and got in to Bydgoszcz this year. At least one of them is going for an event on 4th Aug to a place in Lwr Gardiner St. to learn more what it's like to study there. I also know people who went to study there and they genuinely like it.
I'd say you need to research what Poland is like, the prices etc. but is seems much cheaper th live there than here. A pint is like 1.20 EUR happy days!

Arthur B, just to let you know, I'm going for the interview for 6y MD at Collegium Medicum in Bydgoszcz. The guys who run it in Dublin, Medical Poland, get the papers sorted and give hints for the interview, but I'm wondering how well you know those who applied earlier this year and if I could talk to them about the interview. It's on Fr, 14th, so not too much time to prepare. MP run an info event again on 13th, 5pm.

Hey guys, saw this thread was up and thought I'd post something in case anybody was interested.

I'll be starting the programme in 2 weeks and I can't wait. The guys at medical Poland were really helpful in getting me organised and preparing me for the interview.

I went over to Bydgoszcz about a month ago for my interview with Professor Javien. It went well, he was very nice and friendly and asked me lots of questions about how I planned to adjust to life in a different country, why I wanted to study medicine as well as Biology questions. He asked me about the heart which I had studied a lot before hand based on the advice on med Poland and it paid off!

I'm looking forward to starting in September, when I visited I was really impressed with the college's facilities and the city itself. There are 3 Irish people on the course this year so far and there may be more after the interviews in Dublin today the 14th.

Hope this helps anyone who might be thinking of applying as I believe there might be a possibility for late applications.
