I love studying at University of Hertfordshire because it has a rich history and tradition, and the professors are very knowledgeable and inspiring. The worst part is the pressure and competition, and the high cost of living. I wish they would offer more scholarships and bursaries for students in need.
The best thing about MIT is the innovation and creativity that you can see everywhere. The campus is full of amazing projects and inventions, and the students are very smart and passionate. The worst thing is the workload and stress, and the lack of social life. I wish they would have more balance and fun activities for students to relax and enjoy.
