Is Finland a good option for me to apply to, considering language requirements and difficulty for a Master's?

Yes, Finland is a strong option for master's programs taught in English. You’ll need to meet English language requirements - typically through tests like IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE - with minimum scores set by each university (for example, IELTS 6.5 at the University of Helsinki).
Admission can be competitive and depends on the specific program and university. Finland’s education system emphasizes independent learning and critical thinking, which may differ from your previous experience.
