Hungarian Medical Terminology

Jó napot kívanok!

You're going to have to learn how to speak some hungarian anyway, and the more you do early, the less you have to do to understand the later stuff

Hungarian is called "The most difficult language in the world" for a reason, but you'll learn in steps, and as long as you show up to class and do your homework (max 1 hour /week) you should be fine. However, I do recommend trying to actually learn the language, as you're going to live here for at least 5 years..

Many students who do not take this subject seriously have lots of problems in the 3rd year when they start Internal Medicine and actually meet and speak to patients, many of which do not speak English. Students who have put in the effort to learn the language do not like to be the translators for students who have put no effort into learning. If you cannot understand and speak to patients you will have a very difficult time try to find out what is wrong with them. How to pass Use the language as much as possible when you can, try in shops, restaurants, on the bus and meto etc.

The more you use it the better you will become.

You do not have to be accurate when you speak but you do need to be understood.

The standards of teaching vary a lot from teacher to teacher, some are very good, some are awful and some serve a purpose. If you genuinely want to learn ask around for the better teachers, if you just want to pass the exams pick a teacher that will teach you to pass. Avoid the bad teachers, you will struggle to pass the exams and learn nothing.

The exams Two midterms per semester are going to be exactly like what you've been going through in class, basically just a check to see if you're paying attention and if you give a shit about the subject.

The exam: You'll have two out-of-class exams in total in this subject, one in first semester, and one in fifth semester. This exam should be no problem if you put some effort into it.

The difficulties
Well, its a god damn difficult language, but the way it's set up you're not going to start fighting the 18 different cases until 2nd-3rd semester.

Either you understand it quickly, or you spend an extra hour / week on it.
