Can you say American Foreign Exchange Student in Germany?
Can you say American Foreign Exchange Student in Germany?
I was interested in becoming an exchange student via the Congress-Bundestag program!! But there are some problems, such as, I have never spoke German in my life.. . and I haven't been accepted yet. (They say you don't need to know German . . ) I was wondering if anyone has had similar experience and would recommend them. Some tips to prepare for this/ places to see/ application tips? Oh and whats high school like in Germany? Do they have pre-calculus, world history, or chemistry? (I need those to graduate on time) THANK YOU!!

Wow those are a lot of Questions. I live in Mississippi but I was born and raised in Germany (Frankfurt am Main). I have heard about the Program and I found it to be acceptable. All I can tell you that it will be a great experience for you. Most students in Germany speak English so do not worry about not being able to speak German. Our High Schools are demanding and yes we have all the above (subjects that is). We dont have semesters or credits as you do over here. Most Schools start Chemistry in 7th Grade so depending on what Grade you will have the exchange with ( I assume 10th, 11th or 12th Grade). Feel free to e-mail me with any other Questions especially when you know where you are going maybe i can tell you more. Jennifer (tookoolcowgirl@yahoo.com)
