 Ehm, yeah, there's not much to add to that. I don't really mean it tho, I just like being exagerated. But when it comes to the changes I would like to see in my study program, there is a lot of room for improvement. Firstly, a common issue in my field (PEMBQ) is the distribution of the study load per semester. For example, we have to take Organic and Inorganic chemistry in the same semester, not to mention other courses in the same semester. For context, in other universities, these courses (O.C. & I.C.) are in separate semesters due to their density. This issue continues in the following semester where we have to take Org. Chem. II, Physical Chem, Biochem, Physics II, and have our pedagogic practices all in the same semester. This is not only a matter of time but also of proper prerequisites; we should learn physics before attempting to understand physical chemistry, and the same applies to organic chemistry II and biochemistry. It's as if we need to be constantly on ...

It's a thirst for understanding and a chance to explore history's most significant figures, befor...
