Are you saying that their education system is more strict than the Nigerian Education system? How easy is it to get an A? Have you studied in Germany before?

Education in Nigeria is a joke. Getting an A here is possible but you should be aiming for above 95/100 to get 1.0. Your second question, yes.

Why does it seem to me like those in Germany are trying so hard to convince themselves and others that Germany is better? grin


I love Canada and I won't swap the life for anywhere else, right now.

Don’t have to come to Canada . Never found it attractive. Lived in DC area for four years and made trips to Buffalo a few times but never found a reason to cross over . Americans see Canada the way Nigerians see Niger. Canadians are not as open minded as Americans (met a few of them) and can only imagine what they are like at home . If it was such an attractive place why is the Express entry program only attractive to citizens of third world countries ? Haven’t heard of Europeans and americans take advantage of it in large numbers.

Now let's talk about education but to give you guys an idea about how they spend the money, am going to use US dollars in order for you guys to see how much they spend on a single student.

In terms of education, according to OECD, Germany spends $8,546 per student on education but Canada spend $9,256 per student.

They have some similarities and differences. For example, in Canada, everything from high school and before is considered free education but if you go to university or college, that is paid out of your pocket. However, keep it in mind that there are government grants and of course, sponsorships that one can earn to help produce the amount to pay for tuition fee and unfortunately, when it comes to international students, sometimes, they pay more than a student that is within the country.

Now, going across to Germany, believe it or not, when it comes to tuition fee, no matter if you are going to high school or university. It's all consider free.


Sorry for the late update.

Thank you for this honest acknowledgement,I believe the more you guys integrate the better but learn from the Uk know when to shut ur doors and control ur social benefits system well if not you will be like the Uk whose social infrastructure is now bursting at its sims hence Brexit.
You know. cos of this free movement group of bricklayers can just come and under bid you in a project in London, they come in a van do teh job and bug off back to the Eu leaving skilled trades m en in the Uk out of pocket, this was the part that pissss them off. Another one was people coming down here with 10 kids, claim benefit for the whole 10 take nine back to the Eu and still claim benefit as if they were living here. .Ur kids cant get school places near your house etc.let me tell you the Brits just woke up to realise Africans are not their problems, cos the average African wants to work and better their lives. The found out too late the problem was the EU people especially the new entrants so the result was Brexit.SO in my book, everything will remain same apart from the case of free movement.

Hello bro...please can u recommend good materials where i can read about the Brexit?

Germany allows dual citizenship on certain circumstances. One of such is if it’s difficult to renounce your old citizenship. I hope you’re aware that it’s very difficult to renounce Nigerian citizenship? Many Nigerians here have both Deutsche and Nigerian citizenship.

Germany, economic powerhouse of Europe. Well both countries have their pros and cons. for example, Germany doesn't allow dual citizenship whereby Canada allows that and also you can easily get your PR in Canada compared to Germany.

But I still pick Germany.

Hadampson and Germany is just like Mr Bean and his Teddy bear. Unconditional love grin grin grin

Modified: Germany allows dual citizenship on certain circumstances. One of such is if it’s difficult to renounce your old citizenship, eg Nigeria

Please, is it difficult to denounce Nigerian citizenship?

Nigeria, Morocco, etc falls in that category. As a Nigerian citizen by birth, it’s only the president that have the sole right to approve your renunciation request not the Embassies or Consulates. Isn’t that difficult?

Wow.!

Yeah it's quite difficult grin

If only the Germans will accept burning of passport as denouncing citizenship.

The German rule is that you must be an alien without being a citizen to be eligible get their own citizenship.

@op Truth is; even if you sum up all the comments so far, you cant get a single picture. The best contributors would have been those who have lived in both countries for at least 3 years in each (not as dependents but as independents who worked and paid their bills all by themselves). The worst set of people on this thread are those ones that are still in Nigeria and are so quick to point at posts on the internet; quora, youtube and all sorts of blogs as facts. Even worse are those that intend to come here for studies and are taking advise from their "Aduro" relatives.

While comparing these countries, let this sentence " I am a black man from Africa' be on your mind.

Most of you dont fxxking know what it is to be a black man in most of these countries, let alone a black man from Africa.

I was watching a popular black American youtuber the other day talking about picking up girls in Berlin ( Germany), he said " As soon as they realized I was not from Africa" they became comfortable with me".


One of the contributors said student migrants live better than the blacks that were born in Germany. This is statement to a large extent is true. I can say that because I live here. As a matter of fact I might be able to count the number of black students in my Campus. Guess what I have only seen one that was born here. The exception; those that have one white parent.

The discrimination is real; the most common form that happens everyday is when you sit close (even with a distance of 2m) to a white lady, man or child on a train, they get up and go for another seat. The last one that happened to me was from a heavily pregnant lady WTF. For me this is not a problem anymore cos these days if you leave the seat for another, I would simply put my bag on the seat and then spread my legs wide and make sure you notice my new level of comfort.

Should I continue, I d' definitely be bias. My point is I think neither Canada nor Germany is better in general terms. Look for people who have lived in both places and ask your questions and as same time narrow it down to your goal. Do not follow what you see on quora and co because those things aint gonno give you what you need. If you have to follow, make sure they come from a black person. A black man's goal is to make money, save, do something back home that you can fall back to if things go wrong. Most of our white counterparts dont think like that. They already have a system to take care of them when they are old so putting your money on a white man's words regarding this topic is a recipe for disaster.

Since you have made adequate research and have your proofs and facts. The best you should have done is to rebut my perceived false information with your facts.

I still stand by my opinion, it is easy for a camel to pass through an eye of a needle than practicing medicine in Germany as an African trained Doctor.

https://www.praktischarzt.de/arzt/international-doctors-medical-students/

https://www.praktischarzt.de/blog/gastarzt/

Read up the link above and compare the requirements with other countries like the US and UK, or even Australia.
However, to every rule, there is an exception. If you happen to be the best in your field, a specialist and your specialization area is in high demand, you get to an offer to practice.

Here is more current information on how to work as a doctor in Germany. What requirements a doctor must meet etc.:
