Technical University of Madrid. I love the city but the university is generally out of sync with reality and passing is very hard, let alone getting good grades.
Illinois Institute of Technology. I love Chicago too, but it's cold!

#22Two days left at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. General Engineering (aka Enterprise Systems Engineering). Worst decision of my life. Thank goodness I'm graduating early, thus only wasting 3.5 years of my life as opposed to the typical 4 or 5 years.

Hey I went to UIUC for Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), the best 4 years (and decision) of my life :-) Of course, it was 95-99 so some of the headiest, fastest paced years in the history of mankind. God I miss the 90s. I feel bad for kids who had to grow up in the 2000s, but am hopeful that they will work harder than we did to make the world a better place.

#24Baylor University. I got a full ride scholarship, and it's a good school for undergraduates (if you're motivated).
