On 22 January, our school opened its doors to various universities from the centre to the north of Portugal to show their courses and their possibilities to the students who are already preparing their future, AKA eleventh and twelfth-grade students.
The universities of :
· Oporto
· Minho
· Beira Interior
· Aveiro
among others showed us their potential and explained some of their courses, and also what being in the university is like. We had the opportunity to talk with some of their teachers as well as with some university students.
In my opinion, the best part of this day was the fact that we could see what we were capable of doing in each course, and it made us think about what we wanted to do for the rest of our lives.

Isn't it amazing (and terrifying ) to think that we're almost going to university? I think that these events are great to help us decide our future!
It is really good that the universities came to show us their variety of courses and the averages to get in them. But I also wanted to know about Lisbon's universities courses and averages.
I think it was a very useful project because it helped us getting an idea about the variety of courses that exist and what is done in each of them. It also made us being more aware of the grades we need to enter a course which is very helpful!
