Convoluted while still mediocre in content

As the title suggests, the teaching material, the lectures, the exercises, and so on, are generally excessively convoluted, especially considering the mediocre quality of the actual content of the courses.
You will spend more time trying to decipher a professor’s intricate phrasing, than actually understanding and applying concepts. This has been particularly apparent in the Business Administration Classes.
Moreover, work areas are incredibly limited as the library is almost always full, and the much hyped “Square” does not provide significant space for studying or working.
There are much better options in Switzerland, leading one to question whether attending this university provides anything more valuable given the greater difficulty of following a lower quality course material.

Dear User,

Unfortunately, your experience at the University of St.Gallen has not been as expected so far, and I am glad that I came across your feedback on a course here. Thank you for your patience for a more extensive response on EduOpinions. This will enable a thorough review and ultimately quality assurance for the benefit of all students.

Since there may be occasional discrepancies between expectations and perceived reality, I would like to offer you the opportunity to discuss things in both directions. Would you also like to ask a programme manager for a direct assessment? Perhaps it would be best to involve the lecturer you mentioned if you would like to do so. Looking at other reviews here, there are other experiences as well. My goal is to ensure that you and every individual student continues to have a positive experience.

If you are interested, please contact [email protected] and refer to me, Nils Tiedemann.
