http://www.intohigher.com - Culture shock can affect even the most confident and outgoing people, especially when they have moved to a new country to start a new life.

INTO University Partnerships has created this video about UK culture and overcoming culture shock to help prepare its new international students for study in the UK.

    Seriously,as a American the quality of life for the average person in Britain is better than that of the average american. For starters we have higher crime rates,and as for violnt crime thats everywhere,according to the OECD Australias feel more threatened than americans on the street so different surveys get different results. And healthcare?dont me started on th USA system. A friend of mine had to fork out the equilvalent of £100,000 for heart surgery,and she still died!

  • @Wamm92

    Standard of living for who? The top 10% or so it's probably america?

    For the rest it's England. Especially the low paid. 

  • @TheCarlScharnberg

    Britain more violent than South Africa or the USA? Get fucked!!!

  • @1878EFC2008

    Im American,the standard of living IS better than in America. Poor healthcare,capitalism and racism ruin it...

  • @lessavit

    The North?

  • @hotwav84

    Malta has the highest obesity rates in Europe,and the Czech Republic drink more than Britain. And fuck off about the healthcare,British healthcare ranked 16th in the world above most european countries and above all other english speaking countries. Probably French,your country has high sexual assualt rates,a rubbish credit rating system and rude,prententious people!

  • @lovelittlecats Yes, I just raise an eyebrow when people complain about immigrants, and they want "Britain to be British". Don't they understand that this country was built on immigration? Immigration is incredibly British! Our first king was French and our current one is German, married to a Greek!

  • @hotwav84 woah, and where are you from exactly before you start trashing the UK? just how many british doctors did you question exactly, hardly scientific reasoning is it? your assesrtions about how high the teenage pragnancy, binge drinking and violnce rates are innacurate and misleading
