If you need more time to study than the allotted time for the major, how much longer would you have to study that major in Germany? Are there any significant differences between countries in Germany and other countries in the EU regarding this scenario? Thank you.

What does this question mean? What "allotted time"? Who does the allotting? Do you mean, does getting a degree take more years in the US compared to European countries? Or are you referring to studying at home/doing homework for the classes? All I know is, that my German instructors (from Germany, not Americans) said that a lot of students spend their time partying, then cram for their exams at the last minute. In the US, in a lot of undergrad courses, you can't do that, because some instructors have weekly quizzes, or other periodic tests, in addition to mid-terms and finals.

Anyway, I'm open to hearing from people, regarding how widespread that "party/cram" approach is or isn't.

None of the above.

For instance, let's say being an Accounting major is supposed to take 4 years in order for you to graduate. Instead, you need 6 years to complete the classes. Will you be allowed to take all the classes you need to within 6 years? (2 years extra gap than expected.)

Valuing education, yet there isn’t any degree of pretentiousness overlayers to official accomplishing. Overly laid back or not offering enough in the curriculum varying on country in Europe. For Germany in particular, open to multinationals. Less comprehensive limiting rules. Thus, follow system techniques, and talk to basic representatives that are going to accommodate what you ask.

If you are not a multinational, what are or do those limits tend to be, out of curiosity?
