I wish I had known...
I consider that I was well prepared for my stay, but I wish I had had a better overview in getting student visa matters, whiched caused me som difficulties. Since my previous experience of Au-pair work in Munich I was well prepared, new a lot about social, cultural, political life in Germany and got to know lots of interesting people.

Ludwig Maximilians university is a very good university, which offers you a wide range of different courses. There are many international students at the university, which make the local area very multi-cultural. Every international student could have a tutour - help. There are many students organisations, so that you will surly find acctivities corresponding to your interests. If you don't speak German very well, you can take a course in Studentenwerk, organised through german students, which offer you German lessons (gratis).

Munich is a great place to spend a year. The academic system is very well organized and offers great opportunities. The city is beautiful, have many interesting places (in summer lovely "Biergarten" with the best beer in Germany and not only...). The people are very friendly and helpful. And don't forget the phrase: "Gruess Gott" :), which is a common words for greetings people in Bayern.

Make sure everything is clear with your home university before going (equivalence, scholarship,...)

Big uni, well located in the city (check out the Englisher Garten next to it). Be autonomous, don't expect a great help from teachers or administration. I mean they're nice but not really available for students...

Munich is an attractive city, clean and safe, but make sure you taste the Real Bavaria (Chiemsee, the Alps...) and MittelEuropa (CH, CZ, A, SK).
Take part in most excursions & the Orientierungskurs offered at the beginning.
A first a Münchner might look sober and not willing to talk much, but wait till you share a Mass of Helles with him!
Mit freundlichen Grüssen.

Overall
Unfortunately, my university is not listed on your website. My uni has some amazing teachers, and we had some interesting and useful events before corona times. However, our administration, accommodation, accounting and career departments work extremely bad. Accounting and accommodation department always try to fool you with extra options and unnecessary payments, while administration always on meeting or lunch break.
Career departments show you how to use google and find an example of CV, then they have more important things to do.

teachers, online, ability to get a bachelor degree in 2 years

yes, i wish someone had told me that german students all leave to go back home in the holidays, making accommodation very empty and lonely. also, the international students societies can be awkward and poorly arranged. just meeting people in bars and sports clubs is better.

Dont fly with Easyjet when you first make the move here as you are only allowed one suitcase and excess baggage charges are huge!

As student broad, i didn´t really choose the university, for germany it was this one.
Otherwise during my stay i follow lecture and have a trianing period in a research laboratory, so for question 3 in academic, i would say that i did have any exams, just a report at the end of the year.
