Overall
I wish I had known...
I chose "unimportant" in all of the first section, because I didn´t chose the University. Firstly I was going to Italy, but at the end I changed my mind, and decided to go to UK. But the number of Universities were less because they were asignated. So I went to where it were still places to go.
