“Grado en biología”
anonymous
Spain, Undergraduate
Biology, 2020
Overall
Hice el grado en Biología en la universidad de Sevilla, mi experiencia ha sido buena pero hay varias cosas a mejorar:
- No te guían, si quieres buscar prácticas, becas etc tienes que hacerlo por tu cuenta ya que no hay nadie a quien preguntar o no saben nada
- La mayoría de profesores son buenos, pero hay algunos que sus clases consisten en leer diapositivas y después preguntar en exámenes cosas que no han dado en clases, algunos profesores brillan por el mal trato a los alumnos
- Pienso que debería poder elegirse optativas desde segundo año y enfocar más la carrera a tus gustos pues es muy general y se da de todo y nada a la vez

Personal comments
Though I spent a lot of money, I did not go over my budget. I would advise to plan a budget and stick to it. Eat at home and then go out so you won`t feel pressed to buy food.

It was a wonderful experience living with a host family during my stay in Spain. I was able to be immersed in the culture of Spain.

“Un poco decepcionada”

Overall
La carrera es preciosa, si eres amante de las Humanidades la vas a disfrutar, desde la clase más sencilla al trabajo de investigación más exhaustivo. Sin embargo, los métodos de evaluación y de clase (memorizar tropecientos nombres y fechas para un único examen, profesores que no saben usar apenas un ordenador, etc etc) se sienten muy anticuados para los momentos en los que estamos, y muchos profesores se agarran a sus sillas y a sus formas desfasadas como los auténticos dinosaurios que son, y a veces sientes que están en una burbuja y no son conscientes del tiempo en el que viven, de la situación real del alumnado, etc etc.

Personal comments
You absolutely MUST travel while you're there!!! Go for the whole year, and during the winter break, travel through Europe. On weekends, you HAVE to go to Portugal and Morocco! I don't know if it's still there, but B-60 was a fun place for drinking and dancing. Just in general, be ready for a lot of late nights of having fun!!! Don't drink too much, though, because it's just not very classy there.

Keep track of your money. Use your ATM to take out money or open a Spanish account. US Dollars go much further than Spanish Pesetas. Don't use travelers checks. Many places don't except them.
