I did Master in Mathematics at TUM, and trust me sometimes studying the entire semester is sometimes not enough. The exam pattern and exam itself can be brutal, be it the time pressure in which you have to finish (Usually an hour or 90 minutes at max) or the exercises themselves being nothing that you have seen before.
@nitinmadan4009 I am doing Bachelor's rn in Mathematics at TUM and you're so real for saying that we're not given enough time for the exams, it's so stressful Btw sorry to ask u, but do they care about GPA when you want to continue to pursue Master's after Bachelor's degree??
Electrical Engineer from TUM here. We had 10 GOPs it was like a hell year. But looking back it was the best time I've ever had when it comes to panicking before and during the exams.
@setabkhan3081 you will make it, just trust yourself and keep in mind, that its much easier when you hustle it through with a group of likewise motivated people. Good luck ma fam
Thank you for the video! I would appreciate any information on one of the following questions: What is the average time between the exam and study periods that you managed to get? Is this enough for internships? What percentage of students were expelled from the bachelor's program? What percentage of students take longer than usual to complete their studies? Is the study period limited? What is the average waiting time for a dormitory? Was mathematics the most difficult subject? How much more challenging is the situation at the faculty of computer science?
I pull this from my memory for Bachelor's in CS or CIT School. Facts could vary or be false xd. 1. ~2-3month, with exceptions shorter 2. Yeah, people do internships in this time 3. I think 50% that get in don't finish 4. ~85% finish late (not sure) 5. There is a minimal speed. It is quite complex and with exceptions but +~2 semesters for 6 semester bachelor's 6. Waiting time is ~2Years for Germans. Depends a little on what option you want. Exchange students get in insteadly. International I do not know. 7. For CS math is by far the most difficult. It is ~50% fail rate in the first exams and ~70% in the repeat exams. The first one is easier though. There is another difficult CS class later (THEO). 8. I only know CS. I expect Chemistry, Biology to be slightly easier/same. Math and physics harder. Most other stuff easier. (I know the first few semesters of Economics are way easier) You can find most answers in depth on the website of TUM. There is a statistics sheet with all facts and a "rule book". You should be fine if you know some CS stuff. If that is not the case, well, your world will most likely burn. Good luck.
@@dumel7222 Hey! Huge thanks! Actually, I read some stats in one of those German books and had a few chats with people at TUM itself when I was living in Munich-and I was shocked. I’m from Russia and used to study humanities, but I wanted to pivot, and those numbers completely blew my mind. Especially how long it takes to graduate, the dropout rates, and the failure stats. Plus, from what I saw, most students end up doing werkstudentenjobs instead of internships. Also, I found out that spring breaks last about a month and a half, and summer break is around two months-which also shocked me. Sorry for dumping so much info, but yeah, it was an eye-opener for me. I wanted to get as much insider info as possible. I thought maybe I was missing something due to lack of experience. Another thing I noticed is that the university seems way more focused on research and collaborations with DAX than on startups or real business, despite initiatives like unternehmenTUM or TUM.ai. Oh, and they said they’ll only decide whether you need to pay fees after the first semester. Not even talking about commute and dorms. To be honest, I’ve pretty much given up on the idea and decided to go for a more practical approach, probably looking toward Berlin instead. But any info from you (especially with numbers and stats) is insanely valuable to me, thanks! P.S. Research on TU Berlin was also disappointing, and it turns out HTW has a 5% quota for international students. Your system is quite something, guys! :D
Imho you should just apply to several universities (that's what most people do), then go to the University that accepts you :) if you wanna do cs, then I believe you will find a way to get through. Since you already asked a lot of questions and proactively approachrd people you seem like a person who thinks and prepares, so be confident that you'll also be able to do the study program! :) If the fees are too high, then maybe other Universities are the better option and then for your Masters you can still think whether you wanna go to TUM, because after you have done a Bachelor's degree in Germany you don't have to pay the international student tuition fees at TUM anymore
Hello Markus. I am applying for masters degree, but when I got to the 164, 187 best credits. It's a bit difficult for me on how to go about it. If you can help me on how to go about it. I will be very grateful. Thank you
Hello, thank you very much for the guide, do you know how difficult it is to get into mechanical engineering and how is the admission system? I know you explained it in another video but I can't understand what it is like for this career and I joined your discord but it doesn't let me send messages. Thanks for all the help you've given
If someone Masters degree duration is of 6 semesters or 3 years , is it possible to extend it one semester at TUM, as he lost one semester due to visa delays , couldn't reach before exams. Will it be possible to get one more semester by informing TUM . If he reached in second semester and studying.?
I also have exams in my Major which is power engineering ;) The entrepreneurship exams are definitely less effort. Also I'm trying to get the whole picture, so not only my personal situation (but of course I have limited information and maybe the topic is also a bit subjective)
Please tell about changing course from BSc Aerospace to Bsc Informatics after admitting to TUM. I am asking this because in Aerospace language criteria is low for German so I will apply for aerospace and then after 1 semester completing my German classes I will shift to Informatics. I am student from India...
Honestly this is a bit hard to tell for me. To switch I think you just have to apply for Informatics again. Typically you are only able to get credits recognized of courses that align with your study degree, so I cannot tell whether and how many credits you would get after switching
same with the learning effort 💀, said to me 2 weeks must be enough since learning 2-3 days max in school was enough, then i entered as a first sem in cs and quickly realized if you do not constantly learn (especially with not much experience in cs) and do the assignments diligently ur finna be cooked (although doing this, i am still hoping i dont get cooked lol)

@ yes they do. But since I pursued just my masters there, my experience is slightly limited there.
@@nitinmadan4009 Oh ok I see, thank you soo much!!
Your guide is really helpful and worth downloading it! Thank you 😊
Glad it was helpful!
But who thinks one week of learning is enough; i study at college of the german Centralbank and we start learning two months in advance.
Yeah my bad 🤣🤣 I definitely overestimated myself back then haha. Definitely deserved to fail the exam
@markus_rut I can agree, when i was in highschool, i did not spend much time with learning , most subjects were very possible without much efort.

I am literally a first semester EE at TUM so thanks

Markus litteraly helping everyone get in the TUM at this point
Heheee
You should be getting 100k views mate! keep these up!
Thanks mate! :)

This is applicable for TUM Asia as well right?
I don't have any information about TUM Asia 😅

Hi, is the past paper normally avaliable for each modules?
Typically no. You have to ask around a bit and sometimes some people remember how the exams were like
If someone Masters degree duration is of 6 semesters or 3 years , is it possible to extend it one semester at TUM, as he lost one semester due to visa delays , couldn't reach before exams. Will it be possible to get one more semester by informing TUM . If he reached in second semester and studying.?
That is a question that I cannot answer. I don't know. Best would be to contact TUM as fast as possible
Please do not tell me you are talking about Entrepreneurship exam?
I also have exams in my Major which is power engineering ;)
The entrepreneurship exams are definitely less effort. Also I'm trying to get the whole picture, so not only my personal situation (but of course I have limited information and maybe the topic is also a bit subjective)

Why would you want to study in Germany in the First place? Wouldn't it be easier to study in an English speaking country?
same with the learning effort 💀, said to me 2 weeks must be enough since learning 2-3 days max in school was enough, then i entered as a first sem in cs and quickly realized if you do not constantly learn (especially with not much experience in cs) and do the assignments diligently ur finna be cooked (although doing this, i am still hoping i dont get cooked lol)
Glad I'm not the only one who was blind in the beginning😂
In my School, all exams are GOP, fail twice and you will be kicked out
That's brutal
