Language difficulties
Language of instruction: Lithuanian
Was learning Lithuanian a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't. Personal comments:
Well, it was my home country, my chosen university, my chosen major, my people and my language. I was dissapointed that international students had very limited ways in communigating with professors because mane of them spoke limited english. I actually do not know how many international students managed to get their degrees and what they actually learned. I was dissapointed with school because I simply chose a wrong major. If I was to choose the field I would have enjoyed-Gedimina's University might have been quite a nice school to graduate from. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
