“Hard to learn with that system...”
Lou
Switzerland, Undergraduate
, 2018
Overall
Despite the great reputation, I was disappointed by the administration skills of the university. Getting necessary information is very complicate and takes a lot of time.
The teaching system lets student very independent, which is good. But not when it means that exams' content do not match with lectures' content or that the average grade of the exam is at 9 points over 60. Never the teacher or his pedagogy was questioned, it is rather about making the majority of students having bad grades in order to promote only the few three that got the most points. I mind a lot cause I wanted to learn so bad, but I wasn't taught.
