It depends on so many things. Check Germanies second best ranked university LMU and find out: http://www.en.uni-muenchen.de/intstud/applying/index.html Didn't post the best one since it is a technical university, but if you like to: http://portal.mytum.de/studium/index_html_en Both are in Munich.

So...I was living in Germany for more than 10 years... The schools are completely different compared to the british ones. The school finishes in most cases at 1 o'clock and it is defenitely boring. Each lesson is about 45 minutes and you have many subjects to do.No free choice. You do not have to wear a uniform at all... The schools are bigger than the british ones, long corridors and big classes with many German females and males ca. 25 in a class with some people with turkish nationality. You have 2 breake-times...each about 20 mins and after school you go home and that is it.So it is pretty easy. BUT the lessons are very short you learn very much and you get a lot of homework. About your job: It depends which job you want to get... And it depends in which area. In Munich for instance when you want be a teacher you have to pass your Abitur, which is an exam which you do at the end of the Grammar School, the highest and best type of school in Germany.When you have done well in your Abitur(short: Abi), then you can go to an University and from there again, with a good diploma get a good job. Ok, again when you apply in munich for a place as a teacher you get very little response because they have to much of them...and you can only afford an appartment,in the case you get that job. In Hannover or Berlin you have better chances: When you become a teacher you can afford to buy a house.The houses are not sooooo small like in England, no They have a great size and you feel very comfortable in them! Ok and before I forgot it 1) In Germany you have to say Blessue You, when you do not they will look at you as f you come from another planet 2)When you want a taxi you just come to the nearet one(car, which stand around every 300 meters) and ask if they are free at the moment.When yes you just get in and that is it. 3)Germans are not so polite as the english are, but that is because of their bad past...you know what I mean. But actually most of them are polite as well...I do not know if you can expect to get a job over there because of the large unemployment at the moment...but I think you have a good chance.As long as you can speak flouent English, which is very popular in Germany you have done Already you most difficult part in the student's life and can look forward. But the educational system is strict and not easy but the country itself is wonderfull...enjoy! I preffer Munich, a great city! go on www.munich.de for futher information. Bye and enjoy. Ps--Sorry I have not answered your question about how to prepare but you can contact me on www.e_kovalev@yahoo.co.uk and ask me whatever you like again.

Depends on your age and level of education. It is highly recommended that you start learning German before you arrive. Many people in Germany speak rudimentary English, but for school you will need German. If you are around 16 years or older you can get a part time job parallel to school. Best ask your "Mitschueler" about jobs and how to earn some money. They will most probably know pretty well where you can find a job and what to expect of these kind of jobs. If you are already at university level be prepared that in Germany nobody cares if you attend classes. You are an adult and it is your choice how much time you spend with your studies. You will live with the consequences of your choices. Depending where you are with your studies you might find a job at University as a "Hiwi" or you might have to look at jobs like waiter/waitress or teach "Nachhilfe" lessons in proper English. Finding a job after finishing your studies might be pretty tough. It all will depend on your subject and specialization. Keep in mind that unemployment in Germany is high and it is not only stupid or lazy people who don't find a job.

If you have an accont in America, you can get money from it from any ATM in Scotland. If you want to put money into it, you can transfer it there from a bank there too. As for costs, you should check out the universiy's website. They have various costs listed there.

Correct. You do not need a visa to visit Germany. You should bring along your passport and your residence permit and be prepared to show them in case asked.

some of your favorite clothes (socks, underwear) that might be unavailable over there; personal mementos, otherwise it is just as modern as the U S so you can get or buy whatever you need. {Or have your parents send it from home (soaps, shampoos, as you need them).}
