I will be a sophomore in college this year, and next year I am thinking about studying overseas. One of my options is Britain. Others I'm interested in are Mexico, Israel, and Eurpoe in general. Any advice, you craza brits you?

The best advice my old man gave me was, "never, under any circumstances, eat yellow snow".
I'll take that to the grave with me, sound advice indeed.

I'd pass on Israel for a while, unless you get a kick out of living under constant danger of getting killed.

England have some nice Universities/Colleges. I would pick one of them if I were you. Try the Manchester area. You dont have to learn a new language to study there.
Israel no way unless you want to go to terrorist school

Why not think about Scotland - great place, great people, fantastic pubs/clubs/nightlife, loads of great scenery (of course!), great places to study - you'd love it!! And, no, I don't work for the tourist board - I just love it here!!

Yeh right!!  If you're really lucky, we might let you chase a haggis - only if you paint your face blue first, mind and have a really dodgy american/aussie/scottish accent

If your gonna study Engineering, you can't beat Birmingham but for christs sake don't get an engineering job over here. The term "engineer" is now affiliated with everyone from a guy who fits Sky dishes right up to a designer. It's a total bummer if your qualified and still put in the same catagory as a bunch of no-marks.

Yep, that's true. Within ICL Professional communities I am classed in the same group as the engineers that deliver home PC's.... It's a joke.
Ah, it's technical, you MUST be an engineer....
That isn't to take anything away from the real engineers out there by the way, just to demonstrate how wide the generalisation is.

If you come toScotland then you might need to learn a new language.
And I don't think you'd need to pay any course fees like you do in England.

Well, I go to Centre College in Kentucky, and it doesn't cost anything extra to study abroad, except for plane tickets, and any other travel expenses. I am a religion and mathematics major. Help any? England/Scotland still a cool place to visit?

Yes, I think so. I wouldn't have opions as to the college I visited, I think, just the nation.

RC, English or Welsh student coming up here to study don't have to pay anything even though they are classed as "foreign" and the education systems are completly different. So it should be free.
I wouldn't come here. But that's just me.
