Familiarity
At the University of Zaragoza there is a very familiar atmosphere, that is, the welcome from the professors to the students is very close and safe. In addition, the companions that are made during all the courses become friends who will soon become a second family.
I would like to highlight that at the University of Zaragoza it is very easy to learn since many of the professors like their work and it is clear that they have passion for what they explain.

hospital practises
At the University of Zaragoza there are good and bad things like anywhere, but something that I think they do very well is to leave us sixth grade free only with hospital practices to prepare for the MIR.
