What students say about general-chemistry

My university experience had its highs and lows. The best part was the supportive academic environment, with passionate lecturers and plenty of resources like well-equipped libraries and study spaces. The vibrant campus life, with diverse clubs and events, made it a great place to meet people and grow personally. However, there were some downsides, like the high cost of living and occasional administrative delays, which could be frustrating. Improving affordability and streamlining student support services would make the experience even better overall.

What students say about general-chemistry

The best aspects are the student union and the facilities available. I think it could be improved if we had more books generally available at the library without requiring click and collect, since right now the library feels like a study space but not a real library.

What students say about general-chemistry

Best is the people and the quality of the education, worst has to deal with who runs UCL, administration has quite a few dirtbags. Facilitates aren't the greatest. I prefer more of a traditional campus feel and prefer KCL and LSE campus. Still considering coming back to UCL to apply for a LLM, alongside the other London unis, and maybe throw my shot at oxbridge.

What students say about general-chemistry

Teaching staff here are exceptionally kind to students and are willing to go an extra mile to help students' studies, with a variety of adjustment measures available. There are too many people smoking on campus and the university management ought to take care of that.

Overall, my university experience has been positive. The campus has a welcoming atmosphere and offers plenty of opportunities to get involved through societies and events. However, communication could be improved, particularly around assessment information.

What students say about general-chemistry

The university is a great place to study because of the strong academic support, inclusive campus culture, and wide range of opportunities available to students. There are excellent learning resources, tailored academic support services, and an active student community supported by a vibrant campus and a lively city environment. The commitment to widening participation, student engagement, and wellbeing creates an environment where students feel supported and encouraged to succeed. To improve further, there could be more targeted support and events for commuting students, as well as greater visibility and celebration of key cultural and social events to ensure all students feel represented and included. Building on these areas would help strengthen an already positive and diverse student experience.

What students say about general-chemistry

Durham is a beautiful city and university with great social opportunities. The traditions are very strong at this school. It feels today like how Oxford and Cambridge were twenty years ago. Sometimes administration can be a challenge, many people have difficulty in knowing how to pay tuition and the university is slow to respond to emails. Also, there are far too many international students and just students in general. The university’s expansion plans are causing a drop in the school’s national and international rankings and causing the university to be in danger of losing its character.

What students say about general-chemistry

The university has a wide range of buildings and very good resources in the SU. However the gym is slightly small and could do with better facilities both in the gym and sports village. It has a good amount of green space on campus and areas to relax however sometimes opening hours could be better or the amount of food cafes / shops.

Medway School of Pharmacy

1 general-chemistry courses SOUTH EAST ENGLAND
University image
What students say about general-chemistry

Medway School of Pharmacy is the ideal university for students who wish to undertake a professional degree that will challenge them and teach them the skills and arts of Pharmacy. This course allows students to explore different areas of Pharmacy such as the clinical, legal and professional aspects of dispensing, as well as the physical and chemical principles of drug development along many others. My favorite aspect of my course is the modern equipment that we use during our practical labs, allowing us to apply our knowledge from lectures to real life. Whilst also devloping our laboratory skills. One thing that could be improved upon is the range of leisure activities found locally around the campus. With the main attractions being the Dockyard - a picturesque location by the Medway River with many restaurants, a shopping centre, gym and a cinema. In order to accomodate our need of adventure, the uni provides students with free shuttle buses to Keynes College from where you can take the bus to explore the historical city of Canterbury.

What students say about general-chemistry

Great place to study; staff is awesome and courses are engaging. As for improvement, better health services, especially for mental health. Some of the underlying things are not what they seem: i.e. lecturers have to strike every semester just to get paid and the school can be too focused on its reputation to see the individual and their needs.
