SOAS University of London

LLB Law - LLB (Hons)

University rating (3)

The good thing I love is that there are many students from different ethnicity and backgrounds and Culture. The community Is really nice. (Societies) The bad thing is that I think when it comes to learning I feel like we just learn the theory of the book and not actually trying to fully understand and that we can use these skills we learned in the future and that it isn’t forgotten for law this could be like actual practical legal learning like role play .

SOAS University of London

Japanese - BA (Hons)

University rating (4)

What SOAS lacks in reliable admin it completely makes up for in the quality of teaching. The library has recently been refurbished, and there are many different spaces to study in or relax.

University rating (5)

Actually, when I got the offer to study at SOAS. My friends told me that how much I am lucky, it is an Amazing University. It has a good reputation, everyone knows SOAS, if they are not studying at it, they wish to study here, and who had the luck to study, they are grateful. When I started, I took presessional course in the first month, I was so stressed, nervous and confused. Then I started my Master's course, I loved everything, and I learned what my friends and everyone meant. I wish that I could study my undergraduate degree here. Maybe the worst thing is SOAS just in Bloomsbury, it should have campus in North, West, East and South not just in the central
