I wish I had known...
what I wish I had known before going is that I will be considered as undergraduate student, because other friends of mine who where doing their exchange program in the USA were considered as graduate students. This could have changed my destination choice if I had known this before!

Course recommendations
Was only allowed to choose two graduate courses out of ten. The others were under grad -- which was not enough challenging although good learning experiences.

Personal comments
The exams are two short and are basically a mesure of how fast you write and how well you memorize. I suggest more time for exams and questions that require more creative thinking. The projects throughout the course were very time demanding, which teaches the student to work well under a lot of pressure -- however the projects were in many cases not technically advanced.

I should have learnt French perfectly. And I should have visited more lakes in summer. And I should have been concerned about my project at university.

Go and try to learn French before. It is not very difficult to have relations with foreign students and you will have colleagues from different cultures which is really good to remove old prejudices

Montreal is a great city. It is very multi-ethcnical and there is a rich bar/cafe/night life. Equally many people speak french as english. If you're going there you're in for a wonderful experience!
