did'nt really have a problem. Yes be careful when the amount of money you can get with your bank card in a week is restricted. I was lucky to be supported quite well by my parents.

Academic
Course recommendations
The level does not indicate anything about the interest or the amount of homework to do. Sometimes the amount of work is heavy, but for me it was pretty ok.

Personal comments
It seems that Swees like to read and give back the exact opinion of the author at the exams. Strange. Maybe not enough personnal opinion. Maybe i also didn't stay long enough to assess the whole degree and way of studying.
