Would you recommend this program? |
Most definetly. The school is great, the people are awesome, and there is no city greater than Sydney. |
Advice: |
Most schools in Sydney are commuter schools (including UNSW) so it is very hard to meet Australians at school. Also, UNSW does not put much effort into ensuring that you are grouped with kids from other schools. |
Fluency required? |
Did not matter (English spoken). |
Will this help you in your profession? |
I was able to learn the newest innovations in my field and also to shadow some professionals and see the differences and similarities of patient care. |
Comments: |
Australia was an experience of a lifetime, like nothing I've ever done before! |
