Personal recommendation
orgnaization is pretty well done; courses are crowded, so better be there in advance; exams can last up to three days if many students register for the same date; oldest european university with corresponding atmosphere and prestige; very good learning environment and many recreations and socializing opportunities; very satisfies with all aspects of student and academic life
