study abroad/student exchange to france in high school?

study abroad/student exchange to france in high school?
If you have gone on student exchange/study abroad to France during high school, what did you like about it? what didn't you like? what would you have done differently? how long did you go for? what was your host family like? any answers will be appreciated... I live in Australia, but most answers will be relevant. I'm trying to decide whether I want to go or not, and I would love some feedback :) thanks in advance.

I would choose either France or Spain. Depends on what kind of culture you're most interested in. I myself am thinking about going to Spain for the summer and i couldn't be more excited about it! Besides, once you get there, traveling is super cheap. So even if you're in France, you could fly to Spain for a weekend for lik 50 bucks.
2 :
If I had to choose, Italy is the place to go out of the three. Be careful on answers ... there are paid recruiters from YFI and other companies who give advice looking to meet quotas on here.
3 :
Honestly any of those choices would be remarkable! When I study abroad I am choosing Paris, France. Can't get any better than that! Good luck picking, and enjoy!!
4 :
I studied in Italy and later traveled through France and Spain before I came back home. I would either do France or Italy for the majority of my time there. Spain is nice to see, but nothing as thrilling as the other two countries (besides Barcelona- that's a whole other story- I LOVED that city.)
5 :
Where you go is a highly personal question -- it depends on many factors including culture, language, education, etc. Is there a particular language you know or would like to learn? Is there a particular culture (food, customs, family relationships, etc.) that interests you? Would going to any particular country be helpful for your future career? What do your parents, teachers, friends, and others that know you say? Try checking out cultures-shocked.org too. Good luck to you!

Most likely, you'd be way below the level the other students are for your age, and unless you speak fluent French, you would't be taking math, science, history, geography... etc... like the rest of the students. If you do speak fluent french, I would suggest going for the year, just get a visa and sign up, I'm sure your family there can help you out with the administrative things, you'll be much better off from the experience. Cheers. (By the way, 'lycée' just means 'high school', its not some special school)

You would have to talk to your guidance counselor, or the office about that. They can give you all the information. I know that you will have a much easier time than the student doing the same thing from France, coming here. They generally have to attend a US school, and keep up all their grades here, PLUS do all their work from the home schools, because their education is all nationalized, so if they don't keep up, they wind up getting put in a vocational track, even if they are high on the academic levels ordinarily. At least, that's how it used to work.
