    Well, I took up Spanish at beginner level when I started first year and had Leaving Cert French. You have a choice which country you want to go to, but you cannot split your Erasmus (i.e spend half a year in France and the other half in Spain).
    So they normally recommend you to go to Spain, that said if you REALLY wanted to go to France they'd let you, no problem.

    But the catch is, the French department have a regulation that you need to spend at least 10 weeks in France if you're no doing Erasmus there, so that's during your summer holidays.
    The French department give you no help whatsoever in deciding what to do during those ten weeks. So another girl on my course and I decided to go to Montpellier for the summer and try to get a job, no luck so far, it seems there's a big time recession here too :(
    Although I provisionally booked a French course here before I came, so looks like I might end up doing that! Grr, French department being so unhelpful!:mad:

    The medicine course is largely just fine. There can be a few administrative "quirks" but tbh, they occur in every course.

    Most of preclinical medicine is just studying hard anyway. All you need is the library for that. Although attending lectures definitely falls under the category of "a good idea".

    Ya that was just me ranting about certain lecturers and individuals in the med faculty and their inability to reply to emails and answer phone calls... although one does get used to it awfully quickly... confronting them in their offices or at the end of lectures frothing at the mouth and with a sharpened pencil in tow generally tends to do the trick.
