My studies at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University

I SKIP CLASSES! I'm currently enrolled at the hong kong polytechnic university.... That is how my review should start rationally, right? But, here is a thing - I'm enrolled in the university and the last time I have been to lectures was half a year ago! It is supposed to be my 2nd year now, but due to the protests, coronavirus I'm on the online teaching for half a year!!!

Free ! Really free

The lowest university rank in Hong Kong. Some professor English level is extremely low. You don’t feel like this is a university because they lack of campus facility with only two huge buildings for the students. Most of the student just come here to go to class and then usually directly go back home. The school is quite flexible because they don't take any attendance in my major. The only advantage for me is the university is in Hong Kong. That's it !
