the only exception to that were the few doctors from cuba we had, though seem to have disappeared, unsure why, maybe they just became brazillians

specificly biochemistry

this, 100% correct, I am a brazillian

I have somehow managed to get in a prestigeous a public university in one of the best campi they have, (though unfortanely in a course that I hate and didnt want to get) and this is genuinely as someone that comes from a self subsistance farmer family the first time I have seen macbooks and ipads in my life (they are seen as status symbols here)

there are state mandated quotas of slots designated exclusively to students that have studied in public highschools and for black or mixed students, inclusion programs for low income students that provide up to half a minimum wage, housing and free food

it is common to say that public universities here are for the rich because, for the most part they are, even with all the support poorer students get, they are still a minority, you will see expensive cars roaming arround in the campus being driven by people who clearly got the drivers license yesterday and dont know what fuck theybare doing, and rich kids outright paying to get help cheating in tests

fun fact the minimum wage is yearly readjusted and based on the cost of common basic items

how is it so bad? I have no fucking clue, we have chronic critical shortage of medics since as far as I can remember

depends,

in Brazil, public universities are mostly attended by the rich for free

paid ones are usually also mostly attenddd by the rich though on average less rich

the reason? even though there extremely generous inclusion programs and quotas for poor and students that studied in public education system their whole lives the public universities are very competitive and hard to get into and since the basic public school system is utter garbage any student from private schools is at a huge advantage

what else is
