I'm not certain, but I believe you would have to learn another language to go to those countries (not legally but to be successful). And although my small town had French and Spanish as options, none of these countries speak those languages. So that's a pretty big hurtle.
Yeah, it's all the other credits that need to be completed not in English that would be a problem. Algebra already looks like German to me. History in Finnish? Nah. Science in Norwegian? What the Hell is a bakterie? It's bacteria and I know that because I google translated the dritt. And dritt means shit.
This needs to be offered more to students. I am american and did bith my bachelors and masters in Germany in finance and am very satisfied with the level of education here. A couple of points: 1) learning the language is only necessary to live and maybe work here, but you can study completely in English and even find work at American companies, plus learning another language is a plus in my opinion. 2) while it's true that American univerisities top world rankings, this includes only the ivy leagues, and I think most of us conseridering this option don't have the lucurt of going there. From my own experience, the university level in Germany is much higher than 90% of state uni's in the US. Don't get me wrong, the research funding and resources in the US are fantastic, but you will have a lot of debt when you're done. As for me, I already have a job offer from a bulge bracket US bank and have $0 in student loan debt. Think it over guys.
Not falling for this trick again, no siree. Germany offers me a free education on a great campus. Sounds to me like college is a fancy word for concentration camp. You won't get me this time you tricky Germans!
