Hello. This is my first post. here it goes...

[PLAIN]http://www.cab.cnea.gov.ar/oferta/galeria/img/balseiro/001balseiro.jpg

Currently I am studying Eng. I am considering to apply for entering the Balseiro Institute to study physics. Here in argentina its the most prestigious institution of science. But I am not really sure about its level and recognition in international circles.
Have you ever heard of it?
Can you tell me something about it? -anything you can tell me is good- Or at least find out something for me?
Is it well recognized?
How is its level compared to any international famous university like MIT, plank institute, or any other?

:biggrin:thank you

You can google many examples. Some to mention are: Jorge Pullin, Orlando Auciello, Pablo Zavattieri, and others.
