Tell us about your overall university experience so far.
Some of the best aspects are the facilities and the location. Reading has great spots for leisure and the uni itself has great staff and organised buildings for academic needs. Some things that could be improved is study spaces. The library is the 1st place to go to study however it’s usually quite packed. Perhaps if there were more areas to study and even more areas in the uni to relax that would be great.

The course is definitely challenging which is a good aspect. Also the fact that we are pushed with a mixture of assessments is great. However, I think from recent experience, we aren’t prepared enough for in person exams. I think that the teaching has room to improve in the sense that we aren’t taught how to answer questions which look different to our lectures. There isn’t student access to similar questions/past papers etc.
