The university isn't bad at all, I like the place it's located and there's a lot of green. But talking about the studies, most of the teachers come there to get paid and don't care about the students, since I started the grade I just had like two or three teachers that really cared and liked their job. The campus life is good but it's just so repetitive. If I could change to another university like UPC I would do it.
