    Quote 1

    I participated in the Open Doors Olympiad in the Russian language conducted by the “Global Universities” Association. Not only knowledge of the rules was checked there, but also the understanding of the language. There were 29 questions: find errors and determine their type, find synonyms, match two parts of sayings, choose the correct definition of the term. The tasks seemed to me not very difficult, but it was important to read their formulation very carefully. It was also necessary to write an essay – 10 topics to choose from. I wrote about the impact of globalization on modern Russian language.

    I chose RUDN University because it is on top of trends and the training here is based on practice. In my undergraduate studies, I studied television journalism – I was into culture and entertainment journalism, and at the RUDN University Master course I decided to rise to a more global level and chose subject area “International Journalism”.

    I learned about the Olympiad quite by accident, but I did not regret a bit that I took part. The tasks were not easy, but some were familiar to me. The most difficult was to wait for the results – which is more than two months. However, I had a bit of hope that I could win. When I found out that I did win, the first thing I did was to tell my mother – RUDN University … tuition-free … victory!

    My first higher education is «Global Economics». Thanks to the Open Doors Olympiad, I enrolled in «International Economics».

    This was my first Olympiad. I learned about it from a friend: she posted some information about the prospects that the victory opens on her Instagram. I wanted to test my abilities and find out if I could win. I was attracted by the opportunity to get education in Russia.

    I did assignments in the subject area «Psychology». The most difficult thing was to write an essay, but everything went well. Since my undergraduate degree is «Design», I wanted to do similar studies in the Master’s course and chose «Arts and Humanities» at RUDN University. I chose this very university for its multinationality, for the fact that here you can find out what peoples’ friendship in fact is.
