Why PUMS? Great Experience!!!
I’m glad to be in Poznań, even though I actually didn’t think of coming to Poland in the first place. The atmosphere of college town of Poznan is perfect for a medical student. I have wonderful classmates from all over the world, and there is so much to learn from the professors! Even though my Polish is very weak, there is always someone willing to help making it much easier to live here, especially when there is so much cultural difference.
