I regret that I didn't enjoy and make use of all the amazing facilities at my undergraduate university.
I went back years later for postgraduate study and did SO much more. I used labs and equipment, "picked brains" from other tangential disciplines and learned SO much.
When I was 17 and went to university I realised how privileged I was to be there but I didn't fully realise that the whole university was there for me! It was my oyster - abd not just my own department. I did go to other academics in other schools to ask/borrow/try to understand specific things but never (for example) used the equipment in engineering or used the psychology department to further my understanding of my own undergraduate work.
I know this is a rather niche regret but sometimes I come upon something and know it was there to explore and I chose not to!
