okay well you have to do fund raisers, and learn german, of not you are going to be lost not knowing what ANYONE is saying
2 :
suck my dick then u will find all ur answers
3 :
Well I'm sure you'll have to at least know fluent german
4 :
really good grades, a knowledge of the German language, and a talk with your guidance counselor/foreign language teacher.
5 :
Well I know that you'll have to make up most work you miss if you go during the school year. also at least 3 years (maybe two) of German. You need a solid foundation.

Are there any Laptops suitable for a High School exchange student to Germany?
Are there any Laptops suitable for a High School exchange student to Germany?
What would the best types of laptop be? Although I would like to limit the price to around $1,400. And also, becuase of the exchange, it also must be light and portable. It must have 1 GB ram, and somewhat large hard drive. Thanks for the insight...

One of these should be great. These are thin and light notebooks. They range from 629.99-1299.99 http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/series_can.do?storeName=computer_store&landing=notebooks&a1=Usage&v1=Travel/mobility http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8231102&type=product&productCategoryId=pcmcat103700050044&id=1167445400649 http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8294393&type=product&productCategoryId=pcmcat103700050044&id=1172880155757 http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8293483&type=product&productCategoryId=pcmcat103700050044&id=1172880154277 http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8224753&type=product&productCategoryId=pcmcat103700050044&id=1166840116787

Get a Mac.

You could probably get a laptop for around the $750 range that would do the things an exchange student would need. Use some of the money you saved on educational software.

uiwould either choose england, because the language is so similar, or france, becuase frfench isn't that diffferent from italian.
2 :
I love living in England, but I'm not sure if it would be a particularly exciting place to visit. I'd probably pick Switzerland because of the view. I've been there before and it is really beautiful!
3 :
It strongly depends on what you enjoy: -like beautiful landscape, then go to france, germany or switzerland (but england has some beautiful areas too) -like to visit many different countries, then go to switzerland, with france, germany, austria and italy near you -like good food (and whine if you are old enough), then go to france -if you like good chocolate, than switzerland or belgium should be your destination and so on...

Engineering student, ECR passport, going germany, flight change at dubai, ECNR stamp required?
I am a student at IIT Kharagpur, going to Germany thru route Bombay-Dubai-Frankfurt. my passport is ECR. Do i require any emmigration clearance or ECR suspension for this as I will only be changing my flight at Dubai.???

Nor knowing what ECR is and what may be required to leave India (don't worry, somebody will give yoy the right answer) I just want to let you know that transiting Dubai you do not need any additional docs and that it is freezing cold in Germany right now. Hope you'll take enough warm winter clothes with you. Delays because of bad weather in Europe can be possible these days. The weather in the UAE right now is like a normal summer in Germany and Indians wear winter clothes (especially kids). Just curious what Indians wear when they really are in a freezing country (newbies coming from India directly). All the best, good luck and please do not freeze to death.
2 :
You mean ECNR. (Emigration Clearance NOT Required) is purely a necessity by the Indian Government when travellign abroad. In other words and ECNR is of no use in any other country.

well if u speak german it'd be easier to break the ice. or just include him in ur activities
2 :
If you just learn some German it'd help. Just a few words in German. Hallo, ich weiß, du bist neu hier, aber im Laufe der Zeit wird es einfacher für Sie sein komfortabel. Vielleicht morgen können wir zusammen zu Mittag essen, Ich hoffe ich kann, um mehr über Sie bald wissen, und wir könnten Freunde sein. ich wünsche Ihnen einen schönen Tag! That could go good.
3 :
maybe he is just shy and needs some time to get used to the situation. just be friendly, talk to him, invite him to activities and hope that this will break the ice. i dont know, maybe knowing a few german words would help, showing that you´re trying really hard to make him feel comfortable, but, tbh, i dont think it´ll help that much. i can only speak for myself, but i were in a foreign country i would need some time to settle down, too, and if someone spoke german to me, it wouldnt help much...i mean i would think it´s nice that they tried, but at the end they wouldnt be fluent, so we couldnt talk anyway, there´s nothing i can do with someone who speaks a few phrases of german that i couldnt do with them if they didnt know those phrases. not to forget that exchange students usually come to a english-speaking country to get more fluent in english. and deidodei is obviously not german, because his sentences didnt make sense at all. sorry if i didnt help you that much, but i´d suggest talking to him as much as possible, i am sure he´s just afraid of making the first step.

It depends on your status in Germany. If you are a legal resident and hold a residence permit, then you can use this in conjunction to travel freely as a tourist within the Schengen zone, and therefore as Spain is also a member then it is not a problem If you do not hold a residence permit then you will have to apply for a visa to visit Spain and normally this would be obtained from your home country and the Spanish embassy there. Otherwise you could try with the Spanish embassy in Germany, but if you are there illegally it will flag you of course.
