Hey there!

I am offered to go on an Erasmus studentship to Warsaw on September. I am studying Bsc in Physics and that will be my last year. I was willing to know some reference about the University of Warsaw (concretely, Physics) in terms of difficulty, how the courses are organised, and some more information you may fancy to tell me, as I have surfed the web and haven't seen any opinion or experience on that programme on Warsaw's University.

Maybe @Borek is the best one to ask here. In which language will be the courses?

It is in general a positive mark on your vita if you have a year abroad. If you pursue an academic career, then you can collect new contacts and perhaps have a publication. If you pursue a career in an industry, then it signals that you're not afraid of working elsewhere, even despite some language issues. Both is welcome for companies.

I doubt that physics will be much different.

I have been said that it is contemplated to provide foreign students with resources in English, so i suppose that I will do everything in English.
 
I am afraid despite working in the past at Warsaw University and despite living in Warsaw I have not much to say.

What I do know: Junior studied there about 15 years ago and was quite happy with that, I don't think much has changed since. I would not expect any language problems. In general Warsaw University in one of the best in Poland and Department of Physics was always one of the best depts there. If the question was "Where to study physics in Poland?" that would be my first suggestion, but I have no idea how it compares to schools abroad.

Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11) I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind... The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end...
After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...
I'm going to make this one quick since I have little time. Background: Throughout my life I have always done good in Math. I almost always received 90%+, and received easily upwards of 95% when I took normal-level HS Math courses. When I took Grade 9 "De-Streamed" Math (All students must take "De-Streamed" in Canada), I initially had 98% until I got very sick and my mark had dropped to 95%. The Physics teachers and Math teachers talked about me as if I were some sort of genius. Then, an...
