But when Oscar heard what Nora said, she thought she was just trying to push herself beyond her abilities.
Oscar hurriedly explained, "It's not that we look down on the NYU School of Medicine, but for so many years, all the exchange students that come from your school really take last place all the time. They have never produced any respectable grades…"
This was also the reason why no one in the Department of Biomedicine wanted to be an exchange student.
The New York University School of Medicine's Department of Biomedicine was not ranked in the country nor was the university the best specialist institution in the country. Their best courses were in surgery, medicine, and other specializations to do with medical skills. They were relatively weak in pharmaceuticals.
On the other hand, Staav University was the best school in the world when it came to biomedical engineering. This was also the most difficult course to get into at Staav University every year.
