RWTH is one of the top universities in Germany without a doubt. When it comes to high-tech classes, it is undoubtedly one of the best universities. But, everything has its “dark side” or negative part, and so does RWTH. Living in Aachen was one of the hardest parts of my life, from never being able to find decent accommodation to the weirdest public transport, my life was so chaotic during that time. I literally had to travel around 30 minutes by bus, just to go from one class to another, this was one of the hardest parts of living and studying there. Moreover, one of the most irritating things that caused me a lot of trouble was finding a place to study, I always had to either go from one place to another just to find out that I could not find a place to study, so, I ended up wasting my whole day without studying, or I had to spend extra money to go to some cafes to find some quiet places to study (Espresso Perfetto was the best so far). Of course, I know that there should not be a lot of complaints, but unfortunately, I never had this intro from anyone, and I think that, new students have to know what are they going to deal with once they decide to study at RWTH, and most importantly live in Aachen.
