Review University of Puerto Rico - Mayaguez
There are a lot of different courses available and the professors can range from amazing to omgwhyamIhere! Class style depends on course and professor but they're generally okay. Some can be complicated, other very simple. Class sizes are almost always more or less 30 students except for very general courses which go from 60-100 students. Labs generally have around 18 students.
Excellent University, challenging classes, and strenuous workload. Taking on 18 credits per semester is something to admire if you wish to participate in this school, especially if you're applying for the Engineering or Agriculture departments. It is important to make a point on the difficulty that this college provides, but, on the flip side, you will be well prepared once you graduate.
