The best part of the University of Warwick is how much you can get involved in the student life through societies and sports clubs. You can join the sports clubs even if you’ve never played the sport; these will organize many social activities to get to know each other and bond. The worst aspect of the University I would say is the amount of readings assigned to read. These are supposed to be read for the seminars and to follow the class but they are barely commented. It would add a better understanding and deeper connection to the topics to dedicate 15 minutes to the readings to create a rational debate in class.

The best part is the good quality of the teachers. They are deeply involved in the lecture and really care for the student. They want you to learn a lot and develop rational thinking linking the concepts taught. The wort part would be the seminars. Sometimes they don’t add anything to the subject. These seminars are spent talking about superficial things and end up being very repetitive.

Warwick is a great uni to study at for me. It's got plenty of accommodation nearby for a second year, and whilst being a campus uni the social events on campus are great, and if not the nightlife in nearby Leamington and Coventry is good too. The student cinema is a standout for me with a huge range of old and new films for an incredibly low price. The societies and sports clubs are also really good here. There's also a good range of careers and informational events (and other academic help) on offer which is generally very useful. Most staff are very helpful and good at replying to emails. Library facilities are fantastic. Some buildings could definitely do with a bit of renovation, and some of the academic staff can be slow on responding to queries. One huge issue recently is feedback for a module on my course being 8+ weeks overdue because of "staffing issues" which is ridiculous when our next assignment is due in less than three weeks. However overall the Warwick experience is very positive bar a few issues here and there, so overall it's a great place to study.

PAIS has an incredibly diverse range of modules which are all fairly flexible, so there is generally something everyone can enjoy. Overarchingly my feedback for PAIS is very positive, though there are quite a few things that aren't ideal but can be put up with. Firstly, not all lectures are recorded which can be very inconvenient if you're ill or unavailable. Also, course hours could actually be more, really. In third term we pay a lot of money to only have a lecture or two (if that) and then essentially to sit at home and do research. Seminars for the most part are well run though this depends on some extent as to who is running them. Marking can also be a little inconsistent with some markers being far more harsh on certain modules. However I must reiterate that these issues aren't the be all and end all, and I do overall rate PAIS very highly.

Not much to comment here. I was lucky to stay in an incredible accommodation called Cryfield Apartments with very few places. Cryfield Apartments were amazing - only 8 flatmates but a huge kitchen, small but well laid out rooms with huge windows and nice en suites, and very close (5 min walk) to the centre of campus. No negative feedback really at all - only thing is r.e. Property management, as one of the cleaners took one of our (needed) chairs to sit on in the hall and never gave it back.
