The language problem
Lectures are in English, but patients in Pleven, Varna or Stara Zagora speak Bulgarian. Students who keep up their Bulgarian classes get far more from the clinical years. It is also the language of the internship. Fees, budgets and FMGE results are in the MBBS in Bulgaria section.
