The worst aspect is the crunch culture, which consists in having to deliver the project in a very short amount of time with all students skipping sleep and just stressing all year long about deliveries, although it mirrors the Visual Effects industry according to our tutors even when some modules overlaps while they could be distributed better.

The best aspect is that the knowledge we get is fundamental to getting an entry-level job, once graduated.
The worst aspect is that some subjects are prioritised over others, for example, those who study 3D Visual Effects get more knowledge starting from an "Intro to Maya" in the First Year, while 2D Students get 1/4 of the modules about compositing and do not start learning it properly up to the end of the second year and the majority of learning is self-study during the third.
