Any suggestions for going to a university in Brazil?
Hello, I am a US student and I am planning to go to Brazil. I know some portuguese because I was originally born there. I am afraid that they will not have courses in portuguese or maybe i will not be able to understand in my classes. Any ideas of good universities that have options for students coming internationally? *planning on moving to Brazil

Don't. Brazil is an incredibly dangerous country and the education system isn't good. If you want to go abroad to some excellent universities go to England or France

It is dangerous like everywhere else, I've already been to Paris, and I can tell it is not one of the safest places in the world. :) Soooooo... Usually USP (Universidade de São Paulo) has a lot of foreign students. Well, you have to prove you're good at Portuguese so studying it previously might be a good idea. :) USP is one of the best universities here and it's not private :) The educational system is not good for primary school or high school, not uni's in general, that was a sort of misconcenption. :D Take a look at this website http://www.fea.usp.br/conteudo.php?i=73 I'm sure you'll get a lot from this. Hope this helps. :)

What is it like being a foreign exchange student?
What is it like being a foreign exchange student?
I'm from the USA, and I was thinking about taking a foreign exchange trip my junior year of high school for 11 months. I would be leaving so much behind, so I need to know if it is worth it to be an exchange student. We can go to the UK, Austria, Brazil, Italy, Guatomala, Russia, Japan, and many more countries. Please, help would be needed!

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cool! You'll surely never regret making such a move! Check into it more deeply. I'd suggest going where they speak a language you are studying.

What kind of music do they listen to in Brazil?
What kind of music do they listen to in Brazil?
I have a foreign exchange student living with me, and he is from Brazil. To make him feel more at home, I was going to get some Brazilian CDs , but I don't know what type of music they listen to. I don't want to get some old people music, I want to get some stuff that he probably listened to back home. It would very nice if you included a couple band names. Thank you!

What each person listens here varies a lot because it's a matter of taste. If I said "Brazilians like to listen to such and such music, I'd be lying. My upstairs neighbor likes to listen to techno. I like to listen to pop and rock music. Some people love country, others metal... you get the picture. And a lot of the music we listen to the radio comes from the USA. In addition to American and foreing music and Brazilian pop/rock we also have these types of music: axé pagode forró sertanejo bossa nova samba MPB So you'll just have to ask your foreign exchange student what he likes to listen because that really varies with each person.
