>>216610446proportional to your skin colour
>>216610446Putin actually isn't that wide, media portrays him like that so he seems more intimidating.
>>216610446They’ll send cute russian student to convert you.
>>216610480Would you study there? Wanna go to moscow of the sheer size of city and always something to do but dont know now with ukraine
>>216610786If I was into engineering yes, they're world leaders in exporting energy so they're clearly doing something right.
>>216610838Thought about theoretical maths dunno if wprth it, and the gender ratio is a benefit anyway ahahah
>>216610446My wife is Russian and I spend about 6 months per year there, it's street safe but you're always worried about glowies kidnapping you randomlyMy wife received a written warning from the police that in case that me, EU citizen, commits "anti-social" behavior, she will also be chargedBut then again as a a normal western person you have 0 reason to ever go there
>>216610446Too safe apparently. Too many int niggas here. They all need to go back
>>216610857Theoretical maths is better sought after in Europe, Russia tends to focus on things immediately relevant to energy or mechanics.
>>216610932Your wife is a bit paranoid.
>>216610963This is complete false. Theoretical math's is insanely huge here. Especially is specialized STEM universities like MIPT but good luck surviving there. You dont know who you're competing against lol.Niggas write pages and pages of math's for hw. Insanely complicated proofs and shit. If you're into that it's heaven but like it's gonna be hard. Most MIT niggas would unironically fail here or burn out.
>>216611024Interestingly enough Masters degrees in STEM not to be as much of a maths circle jerk and are considerably easier. Mainly because they assume you already know the material. But yeah MIPT and MSU mechanical-mathamtics faculty go Brrr. Cunts are obsessed, poor children
>>216611024How much of it all in russia is fear mongering from west rest? Thought about moscow state uni and just be a normal dude there, nothing suspecuous or too big mouthed.
>>216610446You will be sent to the front.
>>216611024Really? That's crazy if true considering that they produce so many engineers per capita and don't seem to care for things like CS or AI. Aren't physics orientated maths immensely popular for people who want to work in Russian STEM fields?
>>216611024Have you actually studied at or know anyone there?
But yeah if you're genuinely interested in maths I dont think there's a better place in the world. And I say this as someone who studied and lived both Europe and North America. Just be prepared to work like an animal
>>216610973maybe she wouldn't be paranoid if your schizo country didn't send out police warnings in case of suspected wrongthink lolbut it's all good anyways, she's coming to our free world next month
>>216611122Legit whole silicon valley are immigrant brains, a lor of soviet good scientists moved for a better live causing brain drain but ussr was known fpr their very rigor style
>>216611122oh no they do, russia is big into cs and ai, actually
>>216611106In that case it's 100% fear mongering. Nobody will care about you and you'll have a kino uni experience (with the little free time you'll have in maths lol) My advice is to try to get into MIPT though and have MSU as a second option
>>216611135I know a lot of people who studied there yeah.
>>216611180Yeah we have a uni thats won the ICPC the most times in the world. It's in st. Petes though. The AI program there goes hard.
>>216611187Would you recommend living in dorm for the social thing or rent own appartment?
>>216611155Pretry much. MIPT graduates look like thishttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmitri_Dolgov
Genuinely how does Russia have these institutions producing such giga brain geniuses yet the country as a whole is still kinda poor and badly run outside of Moscow and St Petersburg?
>>216611246I mean up to you. Dorms are hit and miss a lot of the time here frankly. You can try it for a year or a semester. Theyre definitely fun but like they're dorms, dont expect luxury. Though sometimes theyre brand new kino shared apartments, (and sometimes they comminlocks, especially in MSU)
>>216611284Seems competitive lol , what about money needed for survival, my western dukriki is a lot more worth and probably ny wodden accent will get tourist tax on stuff
>>216611304>badly run outside of Moscow and St PetersburgThat's not so true anymore. Regions have improved and continue to improve at an insane pace. I could post an entire copy pasta of tiktok videos from a channel I like documenting the changes over tha past 10 or so years. Genuinely many comfy cities here. But yeah perestroika and corruption did a number on the country
>>216611326Why dunk a country, police guys here have a stereotype of stealing bikes with vans and so what? You dont choose where you come from, nowhere is perfect
>>216611331You'll likely apply for a foreigner scholarship and get a full ride + a government stipend. Also you can work in your free time if you want. I wouldn't worry about money. Just Google the study in Russia shit. You guys get all the gibs for our tax rubles.
>>216611416Is the international student requirements more harsh to get in. Not the most sweat to math but still like it
>>216610446>international studentSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
>>216610446Last week some retarded Argie who went there was begging his parents to save him because they're sending him to the meat grinder. You'd be below even Russians in the food chain
>>216611500They only draft citizens no?
>>216611545Ofc. The retard had to have signed a contract and willingly enlisted and then passed out or his parents just freaked
>>216611564*pussied out
>>216611564Isnt culturally wise in russia if in uni its not "worth it" for drafting given future ahead compared to a. homeless?
>>216611545No, his visa was about to expire but thankfully they offered him a risk-free administrative job in the Russian army so he could stay lmfao>>216611564>t. Recruiter
>>216611375>police guys here have a stereotype of stealing bikes with vans and so whatdo you even hear yourself you donbass tranny we are talking about a country that sends you (a native law abiding citzen) a literal prison/death THREATS from the police, on paper by letter, if they notice you keep contact with someone from outside worldthe same country where people work 60 hours per week for 500 dollars LMAOit's north korea tieranyways not my problem anymore, glad I saved one good human being from bycie sruskim in 2025
>>216611596Uni students are immune to conscription.To be drafted you need to have served conscription in the first place and be in reserve without all the numerous exceptions that exemot you from getting mobikized (if we had a mobilization all of a sudden). And we dont have mobilization currently so nobody gets drafted that way. For the SMO it's all contract based pretty much. Sometimes they catch undocumented churkas and basically make them sign or deport them though.
>>216611671>offered him a risk-free administrative job in the Russian army so he could stay lmfaoSo yeah he signed a contract with the military. And probably actually got that administrative role(or didnt, it's his fault entirely)
>>216611676Who is better? Poland stealing bikes, USA commited so many war crimes i could sit here for days just to name them, china with survaliance? Everything is aboit tradeoffs and by post soviet mentality poland has same mentality as russians a bit blended with west
>>216610446Not safe. They're gonna plant drug charges on you and give you the option to either serve your sentence which is a death sentence or get send to the frontlines in Ukraine which is also a death sentence.
>>216611721Of course it's his fault, what kind of retard moves to a country at war. Can't wait to see him in a drone webm
>>216611764Yeah no lol. Tell that to the million foreign students I see every day
>>216611787It's not about that even. You realize he's one case out of tens of thousands, one that literally signed up for a military contract and knew what he was doing as an adult.
>>216611869You're a fool if you think they won't get you when your visa expires. I hope you reserved a return ticket
>>216611950Im not on a visa. Even if it expires you can just leave nigga. Or renew it like a normal person. You literally dont need to sign up for a contract like a retard, thats the stupidest shit I've heard. There's so many ways for a foreigner to get a visa here now once you've finished your studies, especially if youre from the West with the new ideological bullshit visa or whatever the fuck it's called
