I get the same feeling here in Poland.
I attended a "free" university and one time I got to talking with one of the professors teaching AI about other schools, private colleges in particular. She said that she does a few classes there and the level is way lower than at the "free" university. She shared a felling she had that since the people there pay for the classes they expect the teachers to magically make the knowledge and skills appear in their heads instead of putting in the work themselves.
The sentiment of paying for admission because you couldn't get in on merit alone was shared among a sizeable amount of my colleagues and other professors.
- mcguire 8y agoWhat are the requirements to attend a public, "free" university in Poland? Or, what percent of applicants are accepted?
- mszcz 8y agoThe percentages depend heavily on the specific university and on what you want to study. How this works is that you have a set number of spots. Each person that applies for a spot gets points for high school grades, additional achivements, social conditions (I think), etc. Everyone gets sorted by points. If there's 100 spots, top 100 applicants, point-wise, get in.
