the best is the educational aspect because i always understand what i’m doing, my teachers are a great contribution to that and are always there whenever i need them when it comes to assignments/exams etc. The worst is probably the Coop- so expensive and unsuitable for students who have little money to spare
University life is very lonely and difficult to make friends, however the learning and subject of psychology is amazing!
best - brighton worst - strikes and SU is bad
good bars
uni is good, some lecturers are great and I enjoy my course. majority of people are lovely some lecturers are not good though and some of the brutality buildings are ugly and freezing
Best is the library - lots of study space and everything you need is on campus and it's available 24/7 Worst is the construction - the paths up the my accommodation keeps on changing and the noise is heard from my room
I think it's a great university. Campus is huge so you never feel cramped. Lots of academic and social places. Wide variety of societies as well
Uni is good but too many strikes and disruptions, not enough coursework too many exams

I have felt really supported on this course and when I have had problems they have been dealt with quickly.
Too much building work and is a bit of a trek to Brighton but I really enjoy my course and have met lots of great people

Food and drink are a little expensive.
The point I would like to appreciate is the surrounding environment of the university campus. I love to see trees with squirrels living in them and I can always see those giant mice go up and down around the tree and work on their own business, which makes me feel motivated and we are not the only ones striving here.
Great and convenient location. Excellent teaching staff who go above and beyond to support students' studies. First year halls accommodation is not very affordable, and there are concerns with the new West Slope development aimed at bringing in more foreign students (and more £££), or just not serving all people who already struggle to finance university.
The uni is a good place to study such as jubilee or Falmer bar.
Best - great city, love the course Worst - not many houses near the uni
I enjoy the library caus you get a range of quiet places to places you can talk
Some of the lecture theaters are a bit dilapidated.
It’s a great place to study. It is so welcoming and very attentive to students.The construction around the campus makes it little busy, this could be improved.


Best uni experience is that i made new friends in different culture. Worst is that I didn’t get to live in uni accoms when I was in first year
Best aspects is the calculations cause I love to calculate, I love numbers. Worst is there is some parts that needs to memorise. I hate memorising
