Sarah F Providence College
"Absolutely. Despite the way I ranked some of the things above, I didn't not like anything enough for it to have negatively affected my overall experience.

"My comprehension increased immensely. I gained a lot of independence and became a lot more proactive in my life because it's the only option--if you aren't clear about what you need and don't go out and get it, nothing will get done. It certainly broadened my cultural understanding and I think I got a really good feel for the Sp..."
