Israeli bocherim have a program there called 'kvutza' which is seperate from the 770 smicha program.
This is where did you learn, not where did you........
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

The Israeli bochurim would hate it when the american bochurim would clap after Havdala every week. Oh, were those the days.......

Does it still happen? Anyone?

These are some of the things that you gotta be there to witness in person. Fits in the catagory of "don't hang out your dirty laundry in public" (I already wrote too much!)

It's in middle of nowhere with nothing to do. There are a few different programs there so it depends which one he's in. There is tiferes, tomchei, and smicha

I considered that a major advantage. I came to learn. It's in the middle of nowhere. Granted I left every shabbos, but during the week, I was focused on my learning.
there is "town" which is a 20 minute walk where all the banks are and there's a century 21, 7eleven, etc.
