Are ISIC cards worth the discount?
Are ISIC cards worth the discount?
I'm going into 3rd year and I have an ISIC which discounts the train tickets back home on holiday. I want to go to Argentina in the near future and I know ISIC cards carry discounts for a lot of stuff, however I'll only be a student until the end of 4th year. So I would have to plan the trip to go next summer to take advantage of the student discounts. It's kind of an odd question, I know, but how worthwhile is the discount and should I travel while I'm still a university student?

The discounts are because people still at college have less funds - so you have to think - when you'll work, you might have more money (but less time for travel!), but you will not receive those benefits. The thing is: most places I have visited to, as a student, looked at my regular student ID (the one my university used for the library, etc.) and did not care much for ISIC or other cards - if I got a discount, a student's ID (or a passport stating that my age was less than 26) was sufficient; and if not, those cards wouldn't help me, too.
