Eke40seven is actually the interviewer. Sorry for the late response, its exams period and i had one yesterday. To the questions;

1) I think it depends on the course you are studying. For me, i have little or no assignments but more of presentations which entails lot of group work and no such things as impromptu test, we are even asked when we want our deadlines to be. We should just stop trying to compare education in Nigeria and here, the gap is just too wide. Work and study is not very easy especially when you are in a very demanding course and you intend to graduate with good grades but it is doable.

2) Actually i don't know how best to answer this but i will try not to make it look too easy. I do not have any language certificate but i started learning German online ever since i had the mind to study in Germany, its safe to say i understand German to some extent which actually helped. I got my 1st Job in less than 1month and the 2nd in less than 3months even though some people keep saying there is no job in the East. What actually did the magic for me is my openness to every Nigerian student i met here and the kind of people i met on ground (Big up to Topeajis once again, the guy is a real nigga).

3) Two major food in this part of Germany or maybe in general (not sure) Bread and Potatoes with lots of tomatoes and different leaves. Am an open person so i love to try everything but mostly, i do African food because it makes you spend less with Doner (Turkish) as a supporting striker.

4) If you are lucky enough to be here in August or early September, you will still meet summer sales and get cloths really cheap. you can always get your gadget from ebay or amazon (both new & old). As for okirika, Second hand store full everywhere.

5) Internet at home is really cheap depending on whether you want to have your own router(24euros) or you want to share with your apartment mates (5-10euros monthly). I share with my mates and i pay 5euros. Except you have a contract phone, on the go internet is quite expensive (9-24euros) meanwhile you have free internet in school.

6) - Be open minded, drop your sentiment and forming at the airport grin.
- Language is very very important e.g NO or LITTLE LANGUAGE = No or Menial Jobs, Just like someone said earlier, Perfect your Language and find yourself in paradise.
- Perfect your IT or Artisan Skills
- Even with the language and other skills you have, sometimes what you get is a function of the kind of people you meet. Relate with the right set of people.

7) About countries, with your resident permit/visa, you can travel 26 countries visa free in Europe and travelling elsewhere isn't really a problem.

I think have done justice to all the questions.

Disclaimer - I answered all the questions based on how have experienced Germany in Berlin and i tried as much as possible not to generalize.

Thanks for doing justice to the questions despite your tight schedule..... wish you success in your exams
merci...

I visited the city and the university itself like a month ago, quite lovely and beautiful, its by the baltic sea, borders Wernamude which has an nude beach (lovely? grin)... It is four hours from Berlin by bus. It is not quite big but attract lots of tourist. Most company i saw there are ship building company as it is by the sea (getting a job there shouldn't be a problem).

I spent just 3days there and it was a wonderful experience in all but as they say "visiting a place isn't the same as living there". Others who know about the place or live there can contribute too.

boss weldone oh.... how germo weather iyaff devoured your posts very informative.... just like eke40seven abi say nah obiwann can't remember now i wan do interview for you


1) can you please tell us how studying there is like( group assignments? impromptu tests? how many hours of study? how to join work and study)

2) how easy was it for you to get a job and what were the skills need for you to land u a job did u have an A1 German certification

3)how's feeding there like apart from eating our African foods u dey chop leaves...... lol? found out that they have different kinds of bread

4) how's shopping like i mean like buying cloths getting gadgets at cheap prices... say okrika market dey? abi say computer village dey where thing are cheap

5) don't mind me on this question oh... how dem Internet facilities be.. like browsing what's the price range... like for home and fones

6) lastly what will you advise someone here to perfect before coming over maybe to enroll in a training and get certificate apart from German language proficiency to increase chances of getting employed.....

em how easy is it getting to neighboring countries too

danke schon

Nope. Uni-assist simply ensures that any application forwarded to the university meets the minimum requirements:theyplay no role in selecting applicants. Rather they simply ensure that only formally compliant applications are sent to the university. Their job includes gpa conversion, checking the equivalency of an applicants degree based on the regulations set by the KMK as seen on the ANABIN database and also ensuring that all required docs are submitted by the applicant.

Dont imagine that uniassist aids admission simply coz you have paid:admission and rejection are the job of the admissions committee of your particular program.
danke schon

And it also depends on the university. Some accept direct applications. I applied directly to three universities (TUM, RWTH and Saarland) and got admission into two (TUM and Saarland).
Thanks bro

It is said that he who asks questions does not get lost. Is there a new checklist for the visa interview? Like an update on the version available online. I understand that it is somewhere on this thread, but I can't seem to be able to find it. I'd be glad if someone could point out the page number.
