Experience about my UG course
I did my UG course at Annamalai University in Chidambaram. To begin with the pros of this university are : All the staff have a doctorate in their specific field. All are well stuff staff and if we are interested in learning means, they will teach everything to us. In University, they will not provide any guides or other thing, we need to go to library and then we have search the books. They have a very big library, we can use it whenever we want. CONS: They should provide hygienic environment. They need fastest portal. Everytime it shows only loading . There is no transport facility there.
