I wish I had known...
That Mexicans are not that fancy dressed how it was often written in books- I had the wrong things to wear with me.

The International Relations course with Duncan Wood. And if you have a problem you just have to tell the exchange office and they will try to help you the best they can

Final comments
Mexicans don't dress that fancy as it is written in most books (jeans are ok). To travel around by bus is pretty cheap and has a very good standard.
Mexico City is not really nice and there is not so much to see, but the country itself is really amazing- try to travel and see as much as you can. Teachers of exchange students usually understand it if you are not there because you travel to another part to see Mexico.

“Trabajar con Alfonso”
anonymous
Mexico,
Artificial Intelligence, 2022
Overall
Cuando entré a la maestría me advirtieron que trabajar con el doctor Alfonso sería complicado, que no lo eligiera de asesor. Al final terminó siendo co-aesor de mi investigación; estoy satisfecho de trabajar con él porque de verdad he aprendido como se hace una investigación de manera rigurosa.
Creo que es un hombre muy crítico, pero no sabe medir sus palabras y puede herir a la gente, pero bueno, la gente no aguanta las verdades.

Pros
Nunca he terminado del todo satisfecho en las escuelas. A lo largo de mi trayectoria académica aprendí que se aprende solo.
Cons
Cambiar los incentivos de la escuela hacia los amestros, porque los insentivos actuales hacen que los profesores preocupen por sus plazas y no por enseñar-

Go and be surprised, this univeristy is private and therefore only the top 20% of wealthy mexicans can afford it, but enjoy the experience and rememeber the other 80% of the country are very poor. Try and get involved in voluntary work while you are there, just go and do it - you'll love it!

Share your preparation work e.g. reading list in a team. Alone it is too much!
