Study in Barcelona, Spain

Study in Barcelona, Spain?
Hi, I have been offered to do PhD in economies with the University of Barcelona , University of Sydney, and Vitoria University in Wellington. Which university should I choose? My husband will also be joining me so one main criteria for the choice will be for him to find a full time job as he will be the main supporter while I study. He speaks fluent English, Spanish and Russian and his background is in journalism. He will be able to work unlimited hours for the duration of my studies in all 3 countries. This is something I learned which applies only if you are doing a PhD. Please advice. Tuition in Australia is 30k AUD per year, in Barcelona probably no more that 5,000EUR per year and in NZ 5,000 NZD per year. Thanks.

Well some different factors you need to take into account. Re Barcelona...whilst on the one hand it appears to be the cheapest for tuition fees, on the News this evening, over 17% of the workforce is unemployed (and it's rising), so your husband will find it very difficult to get employment. On the plus side, the life style in Barcelona is very good...the history, the culture, the arts...all in all a very good option, if it was not for the employment factor. Thee tuition fees in Sydney are almost three times that of Barcelona..there too employment is hard to find and...well it's different there. Have never been to NZ, the tuition is quite cheap but not too sure what the employment prospects would be. A difficult decision to make...the best of luck.

You know, the work situation in Spain right now (in fact, pretty much everywhere) is really difficult! but he sounds really qualified. I'd go for it! I imagine it's a realy good school for economics, (I assume YOU speak fluent Spanish, as I'm pretty sure classes will be offered in Spanish...) ¡Buena Suerte!

Help! SAT Preparation in West Palm Beach, FL

Help! SAT Preparation in West Palm Beach, FL?
Hi! I'm a senior in high school and I'm registered to take the SAT on October the 9th. I've taken the test once, and I got a 1770 (which I consider decent since I had no preparation whatsoever and English is not my native language) I'm looking for a private tutor, or a group tutoring in Wellington or near the West Palm Beach area to improve my scores, especially my math one. Any advice on the SAT prep programs like Kaplan, Sylvan, or Princeton Review? Are they good, or do they just tell you the basic strategies and "tips" for taking the test? I need to start the classes as soon as possible, any help or advice is greatly appreciated :) Note: Some people have told me the best way to prepare for the test is to buy one of those prep books and self study. I'm an extremely lazy person and get distracted easily so this doesnt work for me at all....
