Personal recommendation
It is different to my home university. The have other ways of examination such as 24 houre take home exams, and oral exam based on synopsis.All together i think the level of university is much more higher and they expect a lot of readings.

Final comments
I would suggest to rent a car and travel from Copenhagen to oslo- Bergen- look at one Fjord( Flammfjord)- National Park on the way to Sweden- Stockholm- Gotherburg- and back to Copenhagen. Take your bike from home are buy one there, because everyone is going by bike and it is the cheaperst way to move around town.

Personal comments
In my case CBS housing department did not fulfill the rental agreement which i signed befor i came to Copenhagen , because the studenthouse (svanevej 4) was still under construction when i arrived in Copenhagen and so i had to live in a hotel for more than 1 month! Furthermore when i moved in,the house was still under construction and was not finished still i left 4,5 month later. I had to pay around 650 Euro each month.
