Course recommendations
Not to study finance as it is completely different and therefore very confusing to what is taught in the UK!

I have all positive grades for my experience. The only things for me it was not so good, its the settlement: too small for me. But its the only remark that I can do, and also maybe its just because I live in Rome!
