Re: My daughter wants to study in Finland.
Thats pretty ambitious. Usually the entrance tests are crucial if you have a non-Finnish education/degree. And Finns are like the French they have essay questions, no tickbox anglo tests. If you could, you might try brush-up at http://www.eiraedu.fi

Re: My daughter wants to study in Finland.
Well, my dorm was nosiy + i got cabin fever there, so I went after school to the local pub, and spent hours reading my books and doing homework, with a little doping. Back then I could block the background noise and felt OK, but sitting home any noise, like the radiator ticking would annoy the hell out of me. I'm the only guy known to have snored in the crewbar of TSS Festivale during a front propellers test in Bridgetown harbor.jazzori wrote: One that is inclined to study, studies even in a disco.

From what I've seen of the previous tests it's mostly creating artwork based on essay questions and then an interview.. so I'm not sure I'd have to write much.
Apparently Kuva lets their students do their essays and whatnot in English, so fingers crossed I get in there

Haha, yeah I don't think I could handle studying something like international relations or economics in finnish XD I'm crossing my fingers that the "artsy-fartsies" see past my horrible Finnish language skills!
