r/Tashkent

Hi everyone,
I’m seriously considering studying medicine at TSMU in Tashkent, but before I make such a huge decision, I really want honest opinions from people who have actually studied there or know someone who has.
I’m an international student, and my biggest fear is making the wrong choice and ending up hurting my future career.
I’d really appreciate if you could answer questions like:
Is the quality of education actually good?
Are the professors supportive and do they teach well?
Is the degree recognized internationally, and have graduates had success matching into residency or working abroad?
Are there enough clinical opportunities and hands-on experience?
What’s student life like for international students?
If you could go back in time, would you choose TSMU again?
Please don’t sugarcoat it—I want the good, the bad, and the ugly. If there are major issues I should know about, I’d rather hear them now than regret my decision later.
Thank you so much. Any advice or personal experiences would mean a lot.

I will be moving to Tashkent in August starting work in an international school.

Are there any soccer leagues I can join ? I would be looking for something very casual or amateur level.

Are gyms worth it? I have done some research and they seem very expensive.

Are there any Muay Thai Gyms ?

What are the best places to run?

What are the best places to eat local food and international food?

Where would be the best place to live for an expat?

Are there many Irish living in Tashkent ?

I know it is a long shot ……..

but does anyone have any experience of playing golf in Tashkent , I know they have a course but I can not find and further information or reviews online.

for the background 60 year old male - I travel to Tashkent regularly for work and always have a middle weekend free

looking for something active and social

thank you
