Thanks for such a quick response! It sounds incredible! Alright, I’ve got some more questions to ask:
Its really strange because I’ve always thought it was very textual based, and I heard that rabbonim randomly call on students to read out from the sforim, which could be rather intimidating- is that not true at all? Really, what I’m asking is whether I will be disadvantaged if I’m not particularly strong in that area…
Oh no! What do you mean with the visas? I, myself, don’t know anything about that, but I think that my parents are looking into it.
What is the age range that girls come for their first year? Does anyone (even just a few girls) that are significantly younger or older than the other girls come?
Are there only Rabbonim, or also Rabbetzins that teach?
What would you say is the main focus of the sem? I could be wrong, but it seems like you went there, and loved it. Is the focus on teaching life lessons and hashkofos or what?
And finally, why is it a 3 year program? Personally, I think that its a wonderful opportunity to grow over 3 years as a 1 year program would have less of a lasting impact in my opinion, but is there a true reason? What is different with this sem that it runs through 3 years?
Thanks for all your help, and I will keep the questions coming, please keep an eye on this thread. Thanks Leah222!
