I have a wonderful experience with this program, the french program is so much different from my country. I want to a chance that I can actually be in France to study, psychology is not popular in Viet Nam that's why I don't want to study it in Viet Nam.

I study an international program which is associtated with Rouen Normandy University. It's going quite well, I study subjects which are very practical.
