Medicine, 2026
OverallComo en cualquier sitio, hay profesores competentes y otro que no deberían estar ejerciendo, sin embargo, académicamente hablando es muy exigente y muy completa en las asignaturas que imparten, aunque la organización de aulas, exámenes y prácticas dejan muchísimo que desear, y es algo que nosotros los estudiantes hemos pedido que solucionen año tras año.

I already knew spanish, so I had no problems. Most people were communicating nicely and at the end, their spanish was superb. Locals do not tend to socialize with foreigners though.

Bhengala was my favorite bar on calle Santa Lucia. Everything began in Plaza Cañadio and spread from there. BNS was an amazing beachfront nightclub with windows that looked out right on the shore.
