Your list seems somewhat odd. As far as I know, the countries you mention don't have English-language progs, and each of them have a somewhat difficult native tongue. Why do you want to study in a country where you have no clear links, language- or otherwise? Because that's what I'm assuming, since you mention countries from Estonia all the way down to Greece???
 
It seems you're in a rush to find somewhere to study medicine, I think that you should consider the option to study in Cuba.

I wouldn't call it a rush, as i'm planning to go next year.
I would say i'm making a research, gathering enough information so I could make a good choice.
I might likely end up in Russia or Ukraine :) Who knows ;)

I study in Kaunas Medical University (Lithuania). Our university does have an English speaking program, which is appreciated for affordable and quality education by foreign students. Most of the foreigners pick up Lithuanian during their first year, even though it's supposed to be one of the most difficult languages in the world. Good luck in your search!

I have a question. How do you guys (the people who are studying in "English language" programs in Bulgaria, or Ukraine, or Lithuania, etc.) interact with the patients during your clinical years if you don't fluently speak the language of the country where you're studying? :confused:

Can't speak for Bulgaria, Ukraine or Lithuania; can speak for Hungary.

Typically, non-speakers will adopt one of two strategies. One, they'll learn the language in the pre-clinical years; Or two, they'll tag along with a bilingual student (e.g. like yours truly) who'll translate for them.

our school has the same....but there is a third group that don't even bother to attend the clinicals, or show up for attendance and sneak out.... :eek:

That wouldn't work at the Hungarian schools I know. If someone misses more than 10% of clinicals, they need to get the professors and dean's signature to take their exam. Greater than 30% means failing the class.

Regarding your question...well once you start living in a country the preclinical years itself sufficient enough for you to learn the countries language.It is difficult in the begining and then as time passes u get the hang of it.it isnt the biggest probelm. :)
