hi guys, i recently got accepted to aurak and i got sent my schedule. i noticed that i have classes monday to friday, and i live in sharjah so im gonna have to use the free bus that aur gives to go to uni and come back home everyday.

the thing is, the bus timings are kinda weird 😭 like on friday i only have 1 class, but ill still have to wait till 5:45 for the bus back home because the 2:00 bus doesnt really drop in sharjah, it drops at the rak bus stop. so id basicaly be waiting around in uni for hours for no reason 😭

i just wanted to ask if its possible to change the schedule a bit or maybe make it 4 days a week instead? or maybe change the timings if thats allowed.

thank youu

I js finished high school and I am tryna understand how uni works. I got into an american uni in the middle east and apparently it follows an american sort of curriculum method, whatever that means.

Everyone who is currently at uni, how many days do u guys have uni for, per week? Do we get to choose what classes we go to a day and can I like change my schedule. The uni i got into gave me a schedule of 17 credit hours for the first sem. Ive got 5 classes a day (mon to fri) but it's weird how I have ONE class on friday and then I've got to wait till 5pm to go home by bus (the uni is an hour away from my home and the uni provides free transport)

Is it normal to go to uni 5 days a week, i thought its lower than that 😿

I did Edexcel IAL so I wanna know from another A Level student who took the test about how it's like. How is the test like and the difficulty etc.

Also is it true that engineering degrees don't get a 75% scholarship option? That's kinda odd and was kinda disappointing so I want to know if that's just bs. I saw a comment from some person on Reddit so idk.

I have been trying to get some students and begin tutoring (Grades 3 to 8) + (grade 9 & 10 Edexcel IGCSE) but literally noone has texted me. I sent the same advert in like 5 6 groups and still no luck. Am I doing something wrong

the group chats were all 3 diff school's parents groups, a dedicated group for tutoring and another advertising groups, each with a minimum of 200 people in it😭😭

I am charging only 100 AED for 4 one hour classes btww. Others are charging like 50 to 70...

I am a student coming from the UAE and I'm looking to pursuing my undergrad in germany. All the public universities in germany teach ME in german only except one (HAW Hamburg) but their intake is in April and application begins in October but I unfortunately cannot wait till then. Can anyone who studied their please give me an insight to how the university is like, and if the quality of education is decent?

is AURAK good for doing a bachelor in Mechanical Engineering? I got accepted into AURAK and I want to know how the facilities, professors and overall student life is at AURAK
