Volunteer tasks included walking with people with dimentia or spending time with them by having a conversation or playing games.

During my semester abroad in Marseille I followed the following courses as part of the bachelor program: • Applied financial case studies • Management applied to regional industries • Supply chain management • International marketing • Corporate strategy • French as foreign language

“The programme delivers the same depth of knowledge as the standard four-year programme, only in a denser format and at a quicker pace. Students who enrol in the IBMS Fast-Track program must meet the same requirements as students who wish to study at university level.”

In high school I followed atheneum plus, which is a degree that allows you to become a student of a research university. Some of my courses included philosophy, economics and Fast Lane English, a special program that allowed me to get my Cambridge Certificate.
