Life in India VS Life in Germany | TAG that friend

ADMIT IT!! Once you go abroad, you're gonna change and it is more evident. Whether it is speaking about Sports or Speaking to your Mom, it is all going to change. Here are some major differences between how people behave when living in their home country vs living abroad. 



Speaking to parents is never going to be the same

You are going to be more concious about for what you spend

Travels and Check-ins are never the same

Festivals are another thing...

Food is one thing, that you will crave for
**Ghar ka khana is the best**

Will you stay loyal to your team?


Know someone who does all these things?? Share it with them :)

Is it a good idea to join the private universities in Germany?

Germany has lot of "public" universities which offer zillion courses in most of the engineering/science disciplines. But still, there are some students who like to apply for the "private" universities which has better acceptance rate on a comparative basis. The application process for these private universities are much simpler and doesn't take much effort. There are some universities which offer good course modules and practical exposure. On an average, most of the private universities ask for tution fees of around 18-20k EUROS for two years, where your living expenses are not included. Thus for two years you would need to spend around 40k EUROS on a whole. Though the private universities charge tution fees, they would not guarantee an job or Campus placement after your studies.
