Course recommendations
Access to professors is difficult, extra help is unheard of, contact via email or phone is a long process. The quality of the courses at my home university is much higher.

Personal comments
Don't come to Barcelona to improve your academics. If you want to party and do lots of cultural things, fine, but the quality of the professors, the resources and the courses is not that great.
