Hi all!

I'm a 21 year old medical student from Lausanne. I'm Swiss, but I've lived abroad (including 5 years and a half in New York, following my diplomat of a dad ).

I actually found this forum during a random google search on medical studies across the world (too much free time during my summer vacation I guess), finding posts about med schools in Switzerland, and thought I'd join you, since that's a subject I know pretty well , and also because I remember what it's like to arrive in a new country and have to adapt, and getting annoyed by all the little things people seem to do so differently It's also nice to read so much English, which I don't get to practice much now that I'm back in Switzerland...

Hello Kally and welcome to the forum. If younlook at the social calendar, you'll find plenty of opportunities to meet up and practice your English.

Thanks for the info

Thanks for helping out on the other thread - there's always a lot of questions on here about applying to university here, but not so many people with any experience of doing so

Welcome!

Well I'm not sure I'll be much help for anything other than medicine, since it's treated so differently, but I'll do my best

Cool! I just got here as well and yeah, it's quite a culture shock (at least in Ticino) sometimes
