I tried to study danish but it's really difficult to learn it in 6 months. Anyway teachers was really great to teach in english when there were exchange students in tyhe classroom. Almost everyone in Denmark speak a good english, so was easy to learn it.

Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
It's not always easy for an exchange student to fond the right course to attend and most of them are in danish. So it's not easy follow the university for an exchange student who doesn't know the local language. Anyway, I have to say that people was really kind with me and some of the teacher where every time ready to help me.
