News / Poland's economic future? [294]

although they may well be a national disgrace.

This is not a thread about how you translate this or that . I used Polish word of "autostrada" , which I translated as highway , see the internet dictionary above . There is no need to argue about such a marginal thing . I can`t understand how much time you spend on arguing with people . I prefer not to use my energy on idle talking . So I was referring in my statement and showed highways in Poland which are superb - one of the bests and most modern in the world . I also want to repeat that it will take some time to build entire system as Poland is a large country .At the same time Poland is working on high speed trains . The airports were buit in major cities so the transportation in Poland expands in different directions .

About the progress , Poland needs to catch up in almost every branch , but in some branches we excel over old Europe . For example we have the most modern banking system eg. we are ahead in usage of proximity cards, also we have already started mass production of graphen as the first country in Europe.

Poland is not agricultural country as one person said . This is hilarious as agricultural products account for only 4 % of Polish GDP . This branch has been changed a lot recently too . The sector which is associated with agriculture is the food processing industry and is huge in Poland .

No. A highway is not the same as a motorway,

In Canada "autostrada" is called highway too.The term highway is used interchangeably

King's Highway 401, also known by its official name as the Macdonald-Cartier Freeway (French: Autoroute Macdonald-Cartier) and colloquially as the four-oh-one,[3] is a 400-series highway in the Canadian province of Ontario stretching 817.9 kilometres (508.2 mi) from Windsor to the Quebec border. The segment of Highway 401 passing through Toronto is the busiest highway in North America,[4] and one of the widest and busiest in the world.[5][6]

I am not so optimistic as monia but i have no doubt about Poland's bright future.

. Of course nothing is certain , but there are economists who do research on this subject and they are optimistic about Poland`s GDP rapid increase in years to come .

We know what a highway is.

We also know . In Polish it is "autostrada" . Other road than autostrada we call "road".

pl.bab.la/slownik/polski-angielski/autostrada

Don`t call me a liar , you sound so pathetic .

We have few types of roads in Poland
autostrada - highway , droga ekspresowa - expressway , krajowa - state road , droga wojewódzka - interregional road , lokalna - local road , powiatowa - provincial road .

Ustawa z dnia 21 marca 1985 roku o drogach publicznych (Dz. U. z 2007 r. Nr 19, poz. 115 z późn. zm.) w następujący sposób definiuje autostrady i drogi ekspresowe:

translation : The Act issued on 21 march 1985 - about public roads gives following definitions of highways and expressways :
autostrada - droga publiczna o ograniczonej dostępności, przeznaczona wyłącznie do ruchu pojazdów samochodowych, wyposażona przynajmniej w dwie trwale rozdzielone jednokierunkowe jezdnie, posiadająca wielopoziomowe skrzyżowania ze wszystkimi przecinającymi ją drogami transportu lądowego i wodnego. Wyposażona jest w urządzenia obsługi podróżnych, pojazdów i przesyłek, przeznaczone wyłącznie dla użytkowników autostrady.

translation :
highway- a public road with limited availability, only intended for motor vehicles, equipped with two permanently separated by one-way roadways, having a multi-level intersection with all intersecting it by land and waterways. It is equipped with passenger service equipment, vehicles and packages designed exclusively for highway users.

droga ekspresowa- droga publiczna o ograniczonej dostępności, przeznaczona wyłącznie do ruchu pojazdów samochodowych, wyposażona w jedną lub dwie jezdnie, posiadająca wielopoziomowe skrzyżowania z przecinającymi ją innymi drogami transportu lądowego i wodnego, z dopuszczeniem wyjątkowo jednopoziomowych skrzyżowań z drogami publicznymi. Wyposażona jest w urządzenia obsługi podróżnych, pojazdów i przesyłek, przeznaczone wyłącznie dla użytkowników .

translation :
expressway- public road with limited availability, only intended for motor vehicles, equipped with one or two lanes, having a multi-level intersection with other roads intersecting the land and the water, allowing exceptional single-level intersections with public roads. It is equipped with passenger service equipment, vehicles and shipments, intended for road users.

So far, we have sections of autostrada ( highway ) A1, A2, A4 and droga ekspresowa (espressways ) S7 , S8 , S3 I gave you You Tube films of those highways . The road to Lublin s17 is not a highway , the same as to Białystok, Gdańsk

Below it is a very interesting link showing how highway system was built .

These roads are not highways . Highways in Poland are not toll free. So , when you enter the toll booth it means you ener the highway . Othervise it is just a regular road or a highway under construction where traffic is allowed . Also some sections of the roads are already constructed as highways but because they are not finished yet according to the plan they can`t be called highways or toll can`t be collected .

No sense to discus with her.

Why , I always present facts which are valuable .

That's why the USA for example uses GDP as its primary measure of total economic activity, right?

The problem with nominal GDP counted in dollars is that it will never remove inequality caused by different purchasing powers of currencies to dollars .

It is partly thanks to these funds that Poland's economy has been a relative star performer in Europe.

The EU Commission claims that cohesion policy is good for new member states among them Poland , but also for the older members .For every euro spent on cohesion policy in Poland, the EU-15 countries received a return of 36 eurocents in the form of additional exports of goods and services. For Germany, the return is 72 eurocents as a result of "additional export contracts", therefore all parties benefit from the policy.

That`s my input for today`s discussion .

This means that in the years to come Poland will be the largest beneficiary of the EU cohesion policy funds among all Member States.

You know thar it is not a big deal . Per capita it is nothing , big media cry .

We have lost significant part of our industry thanks to regulations from EU . Now EU can not commpensate what was lost, even 10 times more would not be enough . Roads are getting better , but it is not a great sign in our developement . There are other factors .

Most of you don`t know how Poland looks like . You just repeat cliches heard in your British media , all biased and distorted . I regard your country as a place of badly educated , doped youth and drunk adults , drinking vodka and beer every weekend in excessive amounts , so don`t think that you are superior to Poles and don`t expect us to believe in bollocks you are trying to smuggle in some theory of developed England . You were never developed anyways . During WWII you would die from hunger if it was not American help. Communism degraded Poland very much . But you know what - it mostly downgraded people`s minds and undermined confidence in people`s own strength, but not all of them are like that . There are many people like me , confident and ambitious . This is what Poland is all about these days .

Eh? Stop lying here, it is not so.

Who`s lying ? About what .

Maybe the ones in the photos you've carefully chosen. The vast majority are sadly lacking and in many cases dangerous.

I did not choose anything on purpose , cant you admit that you are simply jealous .I can point out dangerous roads in every country .
Whats wrong with you people . The highway system is most modern as it has been built most recently . Where are those bad highways ?

the road network and infrastructure this would give one example of developing.

Haha , do you think it has nothing to do with communism ? Do you think that only roads matter so much ? You are so bigoted that I have no intention to argue with you I just give you facts , but it doeans`t influence your mind . It is simply hilarious .

You simply can`t come to terms with the stagnation in your original countries and want to downgrade achievements of Poland .

How did you contribute to this thread ?

What I have observed so far is that most of you exemplify just usual moaning ,typical for immigrants who can`t become successful in a host country .

But we talked about economy development, not human development.

HDI is the key factor to determine developement these days , read with understanding all definitions I have given you in my post . It is amazing how some of you can`t comprehend simple informations .

No, it says about your idealistic view of Poland. The country is still called "Developing Country"

Your comment tells more about the level of your knowledge or the lack of it in this subject .

The term developed country is used to describe countries that have a high level of development according to some criteria. Economic criteria have tended to dominate discussions. One such criterion is income per capita; countries with high gross domestic product (GDP) per capita would thus be described as developed countries. Another economic criterion is industrialization; countries in which the tertiary and quaternary sectors of industry dominate would thus be described as developed. More recently another measure, the Human Development Index (HDI), which combines an economic measure, national income, with other measures, indices for life expectancy and education has become prominent.

I don`t care what your opinion is . What matters is that Poland is regarded as highly developed country by trade institutions .

trademap.org/stDevelopedCountries.aspx

Poland is on the 39-th place in HDI ( the factor taken as a main determinant of developement ).

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Human_Development_Index

We can`t compare with Estonia which is like half of Warsaw , if we compared only Warsaw we would be in the first 20 .

Because of your opinion I regard you as a person with hidden agenda .

News / Poland's economic future? [294]

Main reasons for Poland avoiding stagnation are:

No those were not the reasons . The real reasons were that Poland has got own reasonable rules

The IMF and World Bank wrote a paper about lending in Poland at the end of 2006 and came up with an additional explanation: Poland's institutions were relatively unfriendly to creditors.

Let the western Europeans banks listen to IMF and World Bank and you will get a disaster . We are very "unfriendly" as always , haha. Secondly we didn`t buy junk real estate bonds from USA . Economy of USA went bankrupt long time ago . The have been printing empty money for a long time . They discovered how to fool other countries and let them buy junk bonds secured with real estate " bubble".

Our banking system is not modern as you call it it is healthy . Let World Bank and IMF fool you further.

It's easier for underdeveloped country to grow, so your comparison with Germany growing 1% has no sense.

Calling Poland underdeveloped country tells a lot about your mentality .

News / How do Poles feel about the outcome of Germany's elections? [90]

You are such a narrow-minded .

No one claims she is Polish , but she has got Polish roots . That`s it , nothing else .
She has revealed close ties with Poland many times before . She spent her private time in Poland . You know people get very emotional about their roots , but this is something very unfamiliar and strange to you I suppose . She is not very open about it , because she knows that Germans are nationalisic . Once during a meeting with voters in former land belonging to DDR she announced that she had just came back from a trip to Poland and the crowd began to buzz. So she learned from this one ocassion that she should rather not to show off with her Polish ties or roots .

Merkel is the most popular foreign politician in Poland. 75% of Poles trust her. It doesn't hurt her image that she's of Polish descent and has distant relatives in Poland.

She is not distant at all , she is a granddaughter of Polish national . His name was Ludwik Kaźmierczak .

UK, Ireland / wife wants to have baby in poland not ireland [52]

You might be able to bribe someone to get one, but hospitals are generally reluctant to organise them in advance and certainly not on demand.

Your paranoia about myths of bribes is known here as well as your ussual anti- Polish hate propaganda. You have got some issues regarding education , right ?

NFZ covers cesarean section . In some hospitals it amounts to 90 % of all births . I am not surprised it is done under local anesthesia without any pain . On the other hand it brings more risk to the woman or a newborn . My opinion is that such procedure should be limited only to necessary cases .

UK, Ireland / wife wants to have baby in poland not ireland [52]

It's nothing to do with the quality of the education and everything to do with the rights that the papers give.

Not satisfied with your crap education and that`s why you are so frustrated living among educated Polish people ????

she will not give birth to our baby in ireland because she doesnt trust our hospital system here

Reggie -your wife is right and let her give birth in Poland; she will be here in the care of professionals and will be sure she will not fall as a victim of statistics. The rankings are for fools. I feel safe, in Polish hospitals person is not treated like an object, like a screw in the machinery. In the EU, Canada and the U.S. patients are being manipulated and brainwashed that they should think that they live in paradise. In Poland, the system may not be perfect, but it is honest. Behind the facade of smiles in your countries lies hypocrisy and perfidy, the patient and his health does not mean anything, what matters is - rankings. Your delusion is that everything is perfect , but in fact it is not. As an example, I will give Mount Sinai Hospital , Toronto, Canada on University Avenue . There, I gave birth to my daughter. Labor lasted 10 hours , at all costs they tried to force my body to natural childbirth . After 10 hours of torture , there came a surgeon who said that the fetus is positioned incorrectly , so only caesarean section would safe our lives . Epidural did not prevent my great pain I have been for 10 hours . I was kept under the huge stress , pain and frustration. All this because of recommendations from the ministry to save costs , because the cesarean sections are costly in comparison to natural births . They want also to manipulate the statistics to be ranked higher and tease people and delusioned voters that they live in a safe country with a safe health system , while it is nothing but deceiving potential voters . Therefore I was a victim of this propaganda .

In Poland , fortunately, there is no such pressure , and women can choose the type of birth . Moreover, in Canada, this level of professionalism is so low that the doctor ( surgean or obstetrician is not able to manipulate the fetus to be properly set up and support emerging , where in Poland it is a common practice . In Canada, even the doctor does not have such skills.

Epidural is also not given widely , because it harms more than helps . It was applied to me and since that I1ve had a constant back pain . In Poland, there are no artificially improving the rankings practices , but the appropriate level of treatment is provided .

Why do these rankings take into account factors such as natural childbirth , instead of eg the number of transplants surgeries per capita among those who are in need ? The hospital should ensure cleanliness and sterility , Poland is ahead in that than more developed countries . In these rankings , for example, they take into account the number of cancer cases , which is also unfair. Poland in 1996 was under the influence of radioactive radiation due to the Chernobyl disaster. Doctors at that time said that the incidence of cancer will increase significantly over the next years. So these statistics also lie and obscure the picture , since at the start in Poland there are more people at risk of cancer.

In relation to having children the health system in Ireland is excellent, my personal experience of the Polish health system, in general is that it is a mess.( a total disaster with no communication and its nobodies fault)

Polish health system one of the worst in Europe: report

It is good that you Milky cited this report: healthpowerhouse.com/files/Report-EHCI-2012.pdf

I have read quickly this report and I can only say it is a manipulation of data . There are factors which are irrelevant for the patient , but they are valued by its authors , like having internet site about medicines or booklets from the hospitals about procedures .

In important factors Poland ranks high or in the middle .In some factors there is nothing to do by the system , because for example cancer morbidity among Polish people is high .

Let me show you some examples : in outpatients visits per person per year , Poland is ranked 7-th , yellow color ( diagram from page 11 ). It means that supply of medical services is high In Poland , or in % of streptococcus infections prevention in hospitals Poland is almost 50 % better than Ireland or UK and 3 times better than Italy ( which means, there is a small chance you will contract bacterial infection from a hospital treatment in Poland )- page 63 .

Also this report contains Cesarean sections data, which is irrelevant . It is caused by individual tendency not the system , and moreover Polish women can choose what kind of birth they want .

There is a cesarean section on demand in Polish hospitals.

In outcomes and prevention sections which are the most important there are spheres where Poland is in the middle. We lag behind in cancer, undiagnosed diabetes or kidney transplants or dialysis. These are spheres which Polish system must improve . In these cases you have to pay for it , which I understand , because "Poland is not the richest country in Europe " and these procedures are very costly . There are only 8000 patients per year , who require that treatment, but the cost is 240 000 000 PLN.

Start learning Polish , then .

How did they come up with such ranking ? Italian system is worst than Polish . I have been there( in Italy ) for 3 - months period of time and several times during my ski tours ( I once had a ski injury in Cortina ) and found out how corrupted the system was . Money , hospital treatement , doctor`s internships , and they are ranked 2 - nd . I guess the website was started by Italians.

Poland is like an average European country , there are better hospitals and worse hospitals , better and worse doctors . We are close to Denmark 23-rd , Poland 27-th . Practically no difference . Does anybody refer to Danish system as the one of the worst in the world , according to some trolls Polish is worse than African. Who will believe you, people ?

Your personal experience , even bad will not create an overall good image of Polish system . Norvegians train their students in Polish universities in huge numbers , it is a proof that our education and health facilities fulfill the the most stringent norms.

You can`t even comprehend what is written in your native language - the ranking of UMCS course of law said about passing an entry exam for an attorney`s training , not the Bar exam .

In the ranking of pass rates for an attorney, notary and legal training conducted by the Ministry of Justice, Department of Law and Administration of the UMCS received 5 place classified out of 16 units . In 2010 it was ranked at 2 -nd place .

Oh, forgive me , my mother`s tonque is Polish . I communicate in Polish . All of you make mistakes although you are native English speakers . If you want to evaluate someone`s intelligence by second language proficiency , thats very intelligent of you . They have been doing this for years in the states . Go ahead do this .

Maybe it is time to stop using such primitive methods of retort ?

Landora - you really don`t know what you are talking about . You can write anything you want . It is just only a forum . You can even be a God here .

The question was not about the ranking of Rzeczpospolita . Why did you change the subject ? Oral exams have been taken at Polish universities for years not that long ago . So , stop lying that your parents were passing written exams at uni.

Maybe they became teenager parents with you ???

How can you judge the knowledge of the student from the rankings ? Such rankings are mainly concerned with facilities ? Is there a reliable measure of judging knowledge of an average student from law faculty of certain university ? If it exists tell me the source .

Are you going to degrade my knowledge by using rankings . Is that your wise and logical method , poor lady ?

What I will say from recruiting Polish economics graduates is that their business sense is non existent, their maths appalling (I make them do a test with no calculator) and as Delph mentioned they can understand accounting at only a very basic level.

This is just a bare lie .

I will give an example of just one Polish university which is Warsaw University . So after looking at its merits , how can anyone say that Polish educational system lags behind US , especially in match .

Students from just this one university have been the best for many years .

mimuw.edu.pl/studia/rozne/osiagniecia/?para=k&parb=gcj

Your statement - "they can understand accounting at only a very basic level" referring to Polish students means that you are just a bigoted and frustrated man who does not have any idea about the subject as most of you .

Here is country rankings:

community.topcoder.com/stat?c=country_avg_rating

Russian fed - 143 millions of people , China - 1,3 billions , Poland - 38 millions, USA -316 millions

Poland ranked at 2 place , USA - 6-th

By using match as a barometer of logical thinking , creativity and high IQ I proved that your bare statement is worthless. As you can find out , per capita Poland has got the smartest students .

People, if you want to study and have the worthless American diploma backed up by basic knowledge go to the states , but if you want to excell in real knowledge come to Poland .

Polish university is ranked 4-th , 13 -th , 20-th, the first American university is on the 28-th place:

The poster stated that she went to a Polish university! How can she not know what they're like?

Public or private , there is a difference in Poland

What does this have to do with the Polish education system in 2013?

A lot !!!!!! If you don`t know that during the II WW Poland was destroyed and 63 % of our total GDP vanished and during the next 50 years there was robbery by Soviets . Just asking such silly question says a lot about an average poster here . What do you think funny people that rebuilding the whole country will take a decade or decades . It will take few decades and in some instances may never be rebuilt.

Like your family studied in the UK? Somehow I doubt this.

Listen lady - read what I wrote , I said friends , family etc . My family is not so large but prominent . So listen , my female cousin studied in England , but I don`t remember where , I was not interested to ask , because I don`t value British education too much . She went there for a year I think on student`s exchange program . But she graduated from biology and psychology ( got master in both subjects) from Polish university . Then my friend`s daughter was admitted to Cambridge last year at psychology . So what is it that you don`t comrehend . Then my niece studied social science in Toronto Canada , at the U of T . My nephew studied biology in Vancouver at the University of British Columbia . Also my one relative studied in Paris and then in Warsaw , Poland ( economics and finances ). So I could compare for example the level of biology and economics at British ,French , Canadian and Polish universities , because I have had first hand information from my family and friends .

Not enough students at Cambridge? It's one of our top universities! You've got to be joking!

It doesn`t matter , maybe years ago but surely not now . Look at the scores of British students in international olympiads, that says it all.

University graduates from the western part of Europe don`t have general knowledge about history , biology , mathematics , simple calculation even that compared to the 8- th grade of Polish primary school student . That is so shocking that I would never suspect that without exchanging information among my friends or family members .

Study / Polish schools and Polish educational system level in your eyes [135]

British educational system is in deep trouble , even bigger than Polish .British educational level is much lower comparing it to Polish public universities . British universities just have some advantages from the language ( which these days is international ) and partialy from the fact you didn`t suffer the war on your soil and did not have communism, so your country did not suffer massive destruction and killings of intelligence. You may not know about the fact that 184 professors from Cracow`s universities were either killed or sent to death camps by Germans .

Sonderaktion Krakau was the codename for a Nazi German operation against professors and academics of the Jagiellonian University and other universities in Nazi occupied Kraków, Poland, at the beginning of World War II. It was carried out as part of the much broader action plan, the Intelligenzaktion, to eradicate the Polish intellectual elite especially in those centers (such as Kraków) that were slated by the Nazis to become culturally German.

warhistoryonline.com/war-articles/operation-sonderakti on-krakau-german-operation-murder-members-intelligentsia-universities-krakow-poland.html

So , you British did not suffer such irreparable loss in the recent 50 years . To rebuild our structures took many years not to mention humane loss.

My friend`s daughter was admitted to Cambridge university course of psychology without any tests ,after just a conversation . I know this first hand . Her English proficiency was like native speaker`s because they were diplomats in USA for years . Why was it done ? I don`t understand , maybe they don`t have enough students theses days .

Getting back to your question . The answer is : where I studied there were no funny courses at the faculty of law and administration . It has always been law and administration . This university is UMCS in Lublin . So , my previous statements were very true. Some posters who distort facts will not be content with such news I suppose . Their charges sound stupid now and show their real intentions .

This course like European studies is at the faculty of philosophy and social science at UMCS .

The web page of my faculty is :

Take a look at the long list of subjects I have had to pass . I passed 50 exams during my studies and I did not cheat because all exams were oral ( 3 students in front of the professor ) . How would you cheat in such circumstances . So stop lying about low level or cheating during exams . Maybe on your Polish private schools it is possible , but the diplomas given by such schools are worth the cost of the paper they were printed on .

Funny courses and private higher educational facilities were installed in mid 90-ies of the past century . The level of education at these private schools is so low that I don`t even try to evaluate it . It is pointless and everyone knows that . Some of you who are from GB came here just to teach English at these private schools and all you know about educational system in Poland is taken from this experience of teaching of lazy students at facilities like Koźminski private schools .

These schools have nothing to do with keeping certain level of education . They just produce thousands of future jobless youths whose preparation for further career is none.

Study / MBA in Poland for 40+ and older? [62]

I made it clear how easy it is to access tuition free studies offered by the Faculty of Law and Administration at UAM.

Why did you not mention about the course in your statement ?

Everybody knows your intentions , your real purpose of statements . Where in my statemants I was confused about the faculty and the course ? Through your statement I just made quick assumption like everybody else here about low requirements to get into courses of law and administration . After that when you hooked people on your twisted rod you revealed that it was not law but european studies . Do you realy have time to spend on such stupid arguments ? I assume that you have some personal problems . In all your statements you distort the facts by using unclear and riddled statements .

No one treats you as a reliable source of information . Go out , take a walk instead of being glued to the monitor of your PC . I happen to post here very rarely and lately I was curious about views among posters of PF about Volynian massacre of Poles and placed my opinion . And again I see stupidity from you about Polish universities . You know very little about the subject , but all the time you give negative advices like an expert to random people who are interested in studying in Poland .

It is very hard to get into popular faculties to be accepted to tuition free studies in Poland .Period .

Popular courses mean courses not similar to european studies . It is law , medicine , dentistry , informatics, economics , architecture etc.
In given case there were only several candidates , the number of candidates was lower than offered placements . There were 0.43 something candidates for one place on that course .

From all the courses offered in Polish universities you have chosen this specific course just to mislead people .

I have no intention to argue with trolls like you .

Perhaps Monia would like to explain to us why the third best university in the country (UAM) admits students with a mere 11 points to a faculty of administration and law?

Once again - you distorter - why did you use a word faculty of law and administration , , instead of saying european studies in Gniezno branch of UAM . Everybody now knows the real purpose of your statement .

When I graduated from UMCS studying at the faculty of law and administration , course law , there were no funny courses like european studies . There was law and administration courses only .

During my life I was always saying in everyday conversations that I graduated form the faculty of law . In everyday life who cares that there is a faculty and course . In formal language it is important , I had to use the faculty and the course , but polishforums does not use formal language .

You distorter, didn`t use the course either , just mentioned faculty . And now you are distorting my intentions blaming me of lying , while you are the first who dostorts facts not me and don`t put words or don`t answer as me .

Everyone knows and understands your intentions , that you wanted to mislead people here giving the the sense how easy is to get to study law in Poland .

What did he say ? He didn`t explain anything just said - faculty of law and administration , to mislead people here , nothing else . Now I see it is european studies faculty , I don`t even know what it is . It is probably for morons who could not apply anywhere else . Who cares anyway about faculties created just to extract money from the ministry . They create jobless people stats.

No. "UAM: Europeistyka, ... Wydział Prawa i Administracji" (Adam Mickiewicz University: 'Europeistyka', the Faculty of Law and Administration). Lowest mark of any admitted candidate in 2012 (Ostateczne wyniki, Próg): 11.55.

Yes , I quoted data from Poznań university , Sherlock , called UAM .

Your comprehension level is appalling along with this cms guy . If you live in Poland and can`t comprehend simple things like calculation of minimum scores for aplicants , how can you survive here?

It was 71.60 last year for Law at Poznań University !

This minimum score is on the rise . In 2009 it was 66.40

Why do you people who are so bitter about your achievements in our country lie about Poland and undergrade its people ?
You cms , are you claiming that a person holding master degree in economics has got the sense of accounting on the basic level ? Who is going to believe you ? Nobody . Maybe your sense of comprehension is on the basic level instead , dear.

Pam , I know that, first hand from my family members. Some , who studied in France and some in USA and Canada . One of them who studied in France and acomplished bachelor in France and wanted to get a master in Poland and he received that this year . He said that maturity exams are so simple in France and also univeristy level so low that he needed one year to prepare himself to be admitted for master in Warsaw Univ of Technology. In Canada Polish children are put 1- 2 years ahead of their peers in schools . Also my niece received a bachalor degree from U of T and she told me that it was very easy , required no hard studying . My nephew told me that studying bachelor in Biology he did not have to know for example names of flora and fauna at all . I know from my cousin who has got a master from biology that she didn`t have time to enjoy studying because all her time at the university she spent on studying books , memorising names of flora and fauna not only in Polish but in Latin . This is just an example . To describe the big gap you would have to write a book .
