Dear French Anons,
I need to decide where in France to go for my year abroad and I could use some help please.
My first choice university is Paris- Sorbonne IV, but I don't know which university to choose as my second choice. This is important as it is very likely that everyone and their mother will be applying to the Sorbonne so I want to have a decent back up.
It's between:
Provence (Aix Marseille I) - seems to be a good university, Marseille is supposed to be nice, near the beach would be nice in the summer
Lumiere (Lyon II) - not so sure about the university, it doesn't seem to be ranked highly, but I'm an avid snowboarder and Lyon is near enough to the mountains to possibly warrant a season pass or quite a few visits at least. I hear Lyon is quite nice.
Paul Valery (Montpellier III) - seems to be an okay uni, Montpellier supposed to be nice coastal city.
Perpignan- don't know much about the town if university
>tl;dr: help a britfag out with honest opinions about the cites of Marseilles, Lyon, Montpellier and Perignan
