Many things. What Catania was relly like as a city. How much Italian men stare at you. How unbelievably bureaucratic Italian universities are. That my level of Italian wasn't near good enough.

Course recommendations
There is no online student system which makes choosing courses time consuming, especially given the modular system. Many courses I was led to believe I could do together ended up being scheduled for the same time. Times and days for individual courses were made available very close to the commencement of term, making it impossible to get my reding lists in advance of lectures. The information available on the website is very poor.

Personal comments
I found the aural exam format very stressful, especially given that I was speaking a new language in front of my entire class during exams. There were often waiting periods of several hours and last minute postponements before exams. There were little or no allowances made for those new to the language.
