Final comments
Just to make things clear I would like to say, I have started to study chemical engineering in Hungary then I applied to Imperial Collage and now I am doing my degree in London. I have started my course here from the first year since this way I am not losing any time (in Hungary it was a 5 year course and here it is a 4 year course).
