Like everything in the world, distance education also has both advantages and disadvantages of its own. Let me discuss some of them I found out while doing some research online.

Advantages

• Except for the exam time schedule, you can make your own routine for preparing your topics for the exams.
• Another advantage of distance education is that you will not be distracted by the hubbub that usually happens in a classroom. 
• You will also not be burdened by the necessity to participate in the events.
• If you are employed, then you can work as well as pursue your course.

Disadvantages

• A glaring drawback of distance education is that you will not be able to interact with your peers, seniors, faculty, etc. 
• You might not be able to hone your skills in communication, writing, and interaction. 
• You can, however, engage in conversations with your peers during the weekend classes or joint study sessions.
• Some government institutions, unfortunately, do not employ students who complete their courses through distance education.

This prejudice against students who complete their course through distance learning can be seen a lot, but some also provide opportunities to them based on their capabilities.
