Queen Mary University of London

Medicine - MBBS

University rating (4)

Best: well-rounded, educated lecturers that are enthusiastic about contributing to our learning; lots of societies providing opportunities Worst: assessors for written assignments and PBL tutors tend to not give a level playing field for marking/educating - we don't get taught exactly the same things as the rest of our cohort, it is tutor dependent (PBL, clinical skills, etc)

The University of Edinburgh

Environmental Geoscience - BSc (Hons)

University rating (1)

If you want a world class education, don’t waste your tuition on University of Edinburgh! The university has made it clear they care more about profits than their students or the quality of our education. They’re cutting courses midway through teaching, cutting teaching staff, and merging tutorials into such large groups we can’t have productive discussions. The staff that are left are overworked, so it takes ages to get feedback and it’s never super detailed or helpful. So much for ‘world class education’… They’ve also cut the budget on free period projects to add insult to injury. And raised student hall costs despite negligent management (they can get away with it because flat prices in Edinburgh are extortionate). Worst bit is, the university isn’t even in a deficit like Dundee Uni, there’s no need to make £140 million in budget cuts in ONE YEAR. Especially when the principal still gets his six figure salary and £1.75 million Principal’s House on the university’s dime…

Bristol, UWE

Computer Science - BSc (Hons)

University rating (5)

Overall, my experience at UWE Bristol has been very positive. The facilities, especially on Frenchay Campus, are modern and well-equipped, with great libraries, study spaces, and labs that really support learning. The location is also a big advantage, as Bristol is a vibrant and student-friendly city with plenty to do both on and off campus. Student support services have been helpful, particularly with academic guidance and wellbeing resources. The campus has a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere, and the environment makes it easy to focus on studies while also enjoying student life. There are many societies, events, and activities available through the students’ union, which helps students stay engaged and meet new people. If I had to suggest improvements, it would be to improve communication in some areas and expand career support, such as more internships and networking opportunities. Overall, UWE Bristol offers a great balance between academic support and student experience, and I would recommend it to others.

Bristol, UWE

Civil Engineering - BEng (Hons)

University rating (4)

The staff are all so nice and extremely helpful. If they can’t help you with something they’ll directly you to someone or resources that can. The engineering building is well equipped and the courses have a more practical approach to learning that really helps consolidate the theoretical aspects of your course and show you practically how it applies to the real world.

University of Aberdeen - ISC - Study Group UK

Pre-Masters in Business & Law

University rating (5)

My university experience has been both rewarding and challenging in different ways. One of the best aspects is the supportive academic environment. The lecturers are knowledgeable and approachable, which makes learning more engaging and less stressful. I also appreciate the diverse student community, as it gives me the opportunity to interact with people from different cultures and backgrounds. Additionally, the campus facilities, especially the library and study areas, provide a comfortable space for focused learning. On the other hand, there are a few aspects that could be improved. At times, communication from the administration can be unclear or delayed, which can create confusion about schedules and deadlines. Another issue is that some facilities become overcrowded during busy periods, making it difficult to find a quiet place to study. Overall, my experience has been positive, but there is always room for improvement. Better communication systems and more accessible study spaces would significantly enhance student life and make the university an even better place to study.

I love the student union, so many activities for you to do during the free time and the worst part for me is the travel as it takes a while for me to commute to uni, its something that cannot be improved but its the worst thing for me
