It was pretty good. The teachers were fair with those not native French speakers. It definitely helps to know a little bit of French before going, although there were students who came with no knowledge and did managed well.

Almost no problems. Had a few difficulties in understanding the technical terms of some subjects such as Econometrics, but once you know them you'll have no problems.
