FREE EDUCATION IN GERMANY!!

By Admin
Yes!! You heard it right, doing Masters in Germany is mostly free of cost. It is not fully free of cost, but comparatively it is very less than doing Bachelors in most of the countries. As a student, you many have to pay around 300 euros per semester.   In the recent years, Germany has made its education, free of cost. You may ask, how does Germany manage to provide free education, it is very simple. In Germany the people agree to pay high taxes, which they get back as very good services from the government. And moreover, Germany has a lower percentage of students opting for college, contrary to countries like America or India. In fact, from long back, there had been no tuition fees in Germany, but there are still some universities collecting a small amount of fees as a process to speed up the process of completing the degree.  WHY GERMANY? To your surprise, there are other countries like Denmark, Finland, Sweden and some Northern European countries, who provide ...

Does it really take 100 applications to get an Internship?

By Admin
There are so many Masters students in Germany, who apply for Internships, Werkstudent or Thesis in companies across Europe. But the one complaint that most of them tell is, it takes around 100 applications to get an internship/student position. Is that true? Should everyone struggle so much to get a student position at a company? I don’t think so and this article is about what I have experienced.  NOTE: Some of the readers may have a difference in opinion and I duly respect it. I am no career expert or counsellor, but I guess others can learn something from my experience I believe that most of you would have heard your friends and seniors telling that, it takes more than 100 applications to land in a student job. But, I would say that if you know to apply properly, then you will get the interview call-back easily and then, getting the position is based your performance in the interview.The problem with most of the students either doesn’t know where to look...

Which country is better? Germany VS Singapore | Masters studies | MS course

By Admin
Germany VS Singapore Deciding a path to choose, when you have lot of options in hand is very difficult. When you are applying for Masters studies, there would be a lot of confusion in terms of which country to apply for and there was a question in Quora regarding Germany VS Singapore. Trust me, even I was in the same dilemma when I wanted to pursue my Masters course. Let me throw some light on the analysis that I had done, based on my experience in Germany(Masters studies) and my observations from my friends who are studying in Singapore. Climate:   Are you a person who likes Winters to be cold(around 0 degree Celsius)? Are you a person who likes to just have 2 months of Summer?
