The school really needs to embrace contemporary practices too. Most universities upload student results online, so you don’t have to go to the faculty office just to check your grades, but here, we have to get our results, and it doesn't make any sense considering the school has a school portal.

Overall, while the academic experience is great, other aspects need lots...
