On the other hand
, virtual classes have some negative points. Most of the time, there are some problems with the internet and equipment.

Other than that, if the students participate in physical universities, they might give better feedback from their teachers which could improve their performance and encourage them to study diligently. To conclude, internet-based learning has both negative and positive impact on people who want to join it.
