Hello, I am Pablo and I am 19 years old.

I would like to comment my experiences in the university in order to help you if you haven’t decided your university yet.

First of all, you don’t have to be afraid of leaving your city and you have to be determined and make a decision. That was my case. I was a 17 year old student that had to choose between staying in my city or leaving (my preferred option) and I chose the second one. No regrets at this point.

Now, i am going to talk about the university. Carlos III University is very impressive at first sight. It is a huge change in comparison to high school. The atmosphere is diferent and you are the younger boy again.
The first days can be very difficult because you miss your parents and your comfort zone. My recommendation is that you should go to a student’s residence. There are two of them close to the university so they are the perfect place to meet new people and have a group quickly. Don’t be shy. People are in the same situacion as you are in the first days so you have to be very open and nice.

Now, I am going to talk about my degree. I am doing a double degree of Law and Economics and I am completing my Second Course. It is not an easy degree and I don’t exaggerate if I say that it is one of the most difficult degrees in the whole university. However, if you are a hard working person, you don’t have anything to worry about because you are going to pass all the exams. In my opinion it is difficult to get good marks but it is not very difficult to pass the subjets.

Well, I hope my advises help you and good luck.

Pablo
