Student reviews of the best pharmacy schools in Europe

We love rankings as much as anyone else, but they don’t always manage to paint the whole picture when it comes to choosing a university for your studies abroad. That’s why we’ve included several student reviews. These reviews offer you insight into what’s it like to study at the university and to live in that city.

University of London

“It was a privilege to study under one of the most prestigious universities in the United Kingdom where they provide us with all facilities and resources necessary during our period of study. My degree from this university is recognised worldwide, and thus I am able to apply for anything, either further studies or jobs, with ease and be recognised.”

University of Copenhagen

“Students are assessed after taking one of the following types of examinations: paper, written examination, oral examination, or active participation. In addition, some courses may require the successful completion of written, oral, or practical assignments during the course. Unlike other countries, this system helps and grooms the students to learn to work in teams, alone and also be able to defend, argument and research on projects.”

University of Tartu

“University of Tartu not only gives students theoretical knowledge but also creates opportunities to practice their knowledge. Even the given assignments are designed in a way that we start practising the fields in which we are going to work in the future.”
