Pre-departure
I was chosen by my home university to come to KI on exchange program for three months. The ecxhange information given was appropriate just enough. I was not required to be vaccinated or bring any certain certificates.
Courses during the exchange period
AT1X01 : Community and Home Based Rehabilitation - Cultural Perspectives
I think the information i was given concerning this course was good. I had a detailed view of what CBR is the exams we did were good. During this time we had some group work which enabled me to get different views from my other coursemates.
SSVK13 : Literature Review
I had enough time to write literature and i had good sources. The supervision was good. I really liked the format of examining.
1EE082 : Clinical rotation for exchange students - physiotherapy
I did not get to practice much here but i was able to go to many hospitals and see different conditions. I had good iteractions with patients and some other medical workers.

Summary
I was satisfied with the whole program. I had a great time, although this was a totally different life from that i knew.
Language and Culture
I participated in the swedish course and i think i liked the experience of learning a totally different language from the ones i know.
Studies in general
The swedish study enviroment was very convenient me, i could easily access computers and internet, the library, I cannot compare my home university to Ki because there are many differences i dont know where to start from.
