Well to be very honest my overall experience here has been great.I’ll be sure to prefer this university because the environment and atmosphere is really good and till what i feel,anyone can fit in and the peers are also highly motivating and make you feel at home vibes even at the university.And of course the faculty is really good.Not even exaggerating I think they are the reason I started liking studies because I don’t feel pressurised while coping up with the syllabus. read more
