Study / American Muslim girl thinking to go to Medical school in Poland... [87]

I heard of some kid in Poznan, Poland getting jumped by a group of skinheads, being harassed out of the Poland's English program by other Polish students etc...

You might want to keep this in mind. University in Poland is a lot cheaper and easier than the rest of the world however. I hear they push you through and give out unlimited repeats. Furthermore, they accept anyone, BUT they would prefer to accept white students. They apparently show a little favoritism. However, this is life and how things work in reality... your journey will be a lot smoother if you look at the Caribbean...

PLUS, you have to realize that the students that go to school in Poland are going there because they want to avoid black students... however, if you are a tough person, and push through and stay quiet, things will work out well for you... because they are somehow getting accreditation despite all of this...

Life / Why is cheating at schools in Poland accepted?! [155]

It's alright here cause, even if a Medical mistake is made, we will all have each other's backs. We cover up for each other. However, that is the way of the Medical community in general.

I don't think that cheating is accepted. It is just that the STUDENTS, not the teachers have mastered the art... things work differently in Poland. However, that doesn't make them completely ignorant of the material...

I am a student here and the Medical nonsense is INSANE!
Check this out:

Oddity of cheating at Polish Medical Schools. Poznan University Of
Medical Sciences...
I was reading page 19, and found an interesting student article
concerning cheating at a school where it says almost every student
there cheats:

Furthermore, I found this website (cheating on the board exams):
nytimes.com/1984/04/03/science/cheating-on-exams-for-doctors-causes-alarm.html?&pagewanted=1

Cheating on Polish medical exams:
forums.studentdoctor.net/archive/index.php/t-306918.html

PUMS was even questioned by the Taiwanese government.

Cheating in Poland:
beatroot.blogspot.com/2005/10/school-cheats-and-dodgy-politicians.html

AND YET, they are still becoming doctors! lol
Thus, I thought it would be funny if you made a video where Amir
became a physician in Poland.

Again regarding page 19 of the paper. Dr Ziemnicka, the dean of the University is fully aware of this. However, the polish prioritize having each other's backs over everything else. That is how things roll in that country. It is a totally different culture there. Plus, they are more collective and have the Polish people's backs over foreigners. It is a lot of nonsense that occurs in that country. This is a Medschool may I add... BUT I hear that the tests are harder there.

However, hopefully, in the future, things will get better.

BUT, in order to compensate, I think they make the tests harder... a lot harder than America, or so I have heard...

Life / Do Polish People steal a lot? [330]

From what I have seen the Polish are very sneaky and some can be manipulative. Poland is a very corrupt country.

Here is an article written by a student in the Poznan Universities of Medical science in Poland's newspaper:

Go to the following site
pulsum.pl/index.php?kat=archiwum&nr=116-117
Read page 19 of the paper. It is concerning wide spread cheating at the school...

a comment on the above site also mentions it. You will have to search through the comments since most of them are not in English. Also, word of it can be found on other sites via Google.

I've heard that different groups worked together to take photos of the tests and distract the professors in order to do so. Then they store them on servers. The practice was pretty widely spread. Furthermore, some students go as far as doing the tests in groups... I have even seen the end result.

If you stand up, the teachers in Poland will even laugh at you. The dean's office will protect their monetary interests. I've heard of students getting harassed out of school for this nonsense. IT DOES HAPPEN.

This school is even accredited and it still happens. So don't bother saying that it is fake, because it is not. I just wanted to inform you of what was happening at this University...
