Personal comments
Definitely go to the market on saturday mornings in Place des Lices, and have a gallette saucisse (local delicacy!) have coffee at Scoop or Zing, go to Pyms for a decent club night, but a thursday on Rue St Michel (Rue de la Soif) is a must at some point!! Go and see Stade Rennais play, and visit other places in Brittany, its so easy and cheap on the train, St Malo is lovely as is Brest, and Paris is not far at all.

Une des pires facs de France
Maxence
France, Undergraduate
, 2022
Overall
La fac est tout le temps bloquée pour des raisons inutiles à 100% du temps en plus, le gauchisme a envahi les salles (moi qui pensais que les établissements scolaires n'avaient pas vocation à propager des idées politiques), les meufs sont "non binaires" avec cheveux bleus et rasés (oui ça fait peur) et les mecs ne sont plus des mecs. Bref, un affront à la science n'est-ce pas ? Je vous rassure, aucune science pure n'est enseignée ici (heureusement ils seraient des cas à étudier). Des tags de partout y compris dans les salles de cours, aucune pluralité d'opinion, si vous avez le malheur de ne pas être de gauche vous serez traqué, frappé et insulté (ça me rappelle une certaine époque), et le pire c'est les "ACAB", ils demandent à désarmer la police (oui car ils pensent pouvoir mettre fin à un attentat eux-mêmes en faisant 45kg pour 1m80). Ou alors ils confondent le fait de se défendre avec des supposées "violences policières". Mais et les profs dans tout ça ? L'administration aussi ? Alors les profs bah ils se laissent faire et propagent les idéologies politiques alors qu'ils n'ont pas le droit, et l'administration est aigrie au possible. Vous voulez une vraie fac ? Faites médecine !

As there was not much interaction with the local students and I was living a lone I didn't learn a lot of new "French" French, what I learned was mostly academic.

I wish I had known...
I wish I had known a bit more about Bretagne as a region. It's not really your typical image of France, but it's wonderful!

Final comments
Speak as much French as possible! Don't feel pressured to travel outside of France (or even Bretagne). There's plenty to see that's close by.
