Expert Answers
Which factors should I weigh to pick the right university in Switzerland for me?
→Choose by course first and ranking second, then add living costs to tuition and consider the city and language region. ETH Zurich and EPFL suit engineering, St. Gallen suits business, Basel suits pharma and biomedicine and Bern suits medicine and law. Check official pages.
Which University of Tokyo faculties will be hardest for me to enter as an international applicant?
→Engineering, Medicine and Economics are generally the hardest faculties to get into at the University of Tokyo because global demand is high. Fields such as humanities and interdisciplinary studies are generally less crowded. Check the official admissions page for current rules.
Do all courses at German universities let me apply for both winter and summer intakes?
→No. Only selected programs at German universities accept students in both the winter and summer intakes, and many courses have just one start option. Examples exist at TUM, Saarland University and the University of Stuttgart, so check each program page before planning your 2027 or 2028 application.
Should I choose an MIM or an MBA based on eligibility, cost, duration and career outcomes for me?
→An MIM typically suits fresh graduates with 0 to 2 years of experience, while an MBA usually suits professionals with 3 to 8 years. MIM programs often run 10 months to 2 years and an MBA 12 to 24 months. Costs and salaries vary, so check official pages.
For me as an Indian student, how long does the MBBS (MD) program in Georgia run?
→The MBBS program in Georgia, which is locally called the MD program, typically runs 6 years including the internship. It covers basic sciences, clinical rotations and medical ethics. Duration can vary, so check the official university page for the 2027 or 2028 intake before you apply.
Are the English test scores I need the same at HKU, CUHK, HKUST and CityUHK?
→For undergraduate entry, HKU typically asks for IELTS 6.5 or TOEFL iBT 93, CUHK for IELTS 6.0 or TOEFL iBT 80 or 80% in Class 12 English, and CityUHK for IELTS 6.5. HKUST sets scores by programme. Check each official page for current requirements.
Which key dates should I plan around for the Germany winter intake in 2027?
→Plan around three dates for the 2027 winter intake in Germany: start your APS application by 15 February 2027, submit to uni-assist around 20 May 2027, and meet the university deadline, commonly 15 July 2027. Many master's courses close earlier, so check each university.
