Good for academics and job prospects. Good mix of people. Only about 60% of the media stereotypes are true (i.e. about poshness and racism ect) Excellent tutorials and courses. My one major complaint is the facilities. I have studies at 3 universities now (Exeter and Lancaster) . Both had 24hr libraries and lots of computers ect. Oxford has DIRE facilities. Everything is constantly shut (the libraries all shut at like 6 even before exams, and during the holidays they often close altogether). We have 4 PCs to 400 students in my college. I cant stress how disruptive and annoying the libraries always being closed is. That is my only one main complaint. Everything else is very good. Yeah its very snooty and posh but everyone gets over the novelty after a while and you gradually filter out those people.

The atmosphere of intellect and prestige is largely unparallled, and that is a great advantage from which Oxford benefits. You are being taught and lectured by the people writing the textbook. However, it can get too stressful at times, and the problem with this is that being stressed to some degree is the norm, so you fee as if it takes a really severe case of stress (e.g. resulting in mental health issues) before it is 'legitimate' to speak up, even though it should not be as such.
