These questinons are targeted to U.S. students who are studying in Israel.
How did you go about explaining to your family that you wanted to study in such a volatile part of the world? Are you ever afraid that something horrible will happen to you when you are in big cities, like Tel Aviv? If so, does this anxiety hamper your studying or make you alter your day to day life? Have your families gotten used to you being in the Middle East, or do they constantly worry? Lastly, any stories about dangerous situations that have been personally close?
I am someone who is extremely interested in international health. Israel, from what I understand, seems like a GREAT place to study medicine. The problem lies in convincing everyone else...
