University of Bristol

Aerospace Engineering MEng (Hons)

University rating (4)
Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

Engineering requires a lot of personal study and lectures are daunting to begin with as you come from 6th form lessons where its small classes and lectures are minimum of 100.Bristol is an amazing city. So vibrant with so many interesting and exciting things to see. Top night out if you like raving til 6am.

University of Kent

History - BA (Hons)

University rating (3)
Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

If you are thinking of going with scholarship to kent - ie, you have the grades to go higher - then stop. Yes, you get a great scholarship, and yes, the Uni isn't exactly low down on league tables. But whilst the institution takes great pains to convince you that you should go there despite having better grades, it forgets that the lectures and seminars are suited to the grade level. I don't want to sound arrogant, but I found the course really easy and therefore extremely frustrating. In other areas, Kent is great - facilities are top notch and the kitchens of my accommodation were big, clean and easy to use. But I promise you, if you have the grades to go somewhere higher, do. It may not sound like the worst thing in the world, an easy course, but it makes you feel demotivated, bored and frustrated in yourself. If I can convince one other potential scholar at Kent to make the right decision with this review, I will be happy.

Bristol as a city is an awesome place to be - it has a great nightlife and LOADS of concerts. You get to experience all of this as Bristol is a city university, unlike UWE which is situated miles away. Academic standards are high but leave enough time for a social life.

The negative I've experienced has been struggling with finding a placement in France as the Business School hasn't many contacts abroad.Positives are the social side and I enjoy my course overall.
