Personal comments
There were some courses were I did not understand a single word because thy referred to lots of books, texts and authors I had never treated before. It took me 2 month to get into it.
People always gave me "positive feedback" concerning my language level, I never felt in any way ashamed when talking with my german accent.

Personal comments
Very different approach to science to the one I am used to (in comparison to my home university in Germany).
Sometimes i had/have the impression to study philosophie more than psychology. Anyway, it is still an experience and I did never regret to come here.
