Others in subjects allied to medicine, De Montfort University (DMU)

I am currently in first year of biomedical science, however, so far only the microbiology has been an informative and educational module. The biochemistry and cell biology module is being presented very poorly with the main lecturer being highly condesending and unhelpful. The anatomy and physiology practical lead taught nothing to assist with the initial practical assessment and not only didn't inform the students it was a formal assessment, but gave impossible questions on a restricted deadline. Same goes for the chemistry tutor who seems to be unable to teach and instead gives quizzes every lesson expecting us to know the answers already, with no real context given. The library has an severely inadequate number of reading material available; given how much we are paying for the course and the further reading we are set, you would expect them to have more than a couple of books available per topic. In realiy is dmu worth it? Probably not.

no support given and none offered once you've paid your fees you can go hang for all you personal tutor will care

Amazing course, very interactive. Teaching quality is second to none, if you don't understand something, tutors will go out of their way to help you. Personal tutor is fantastic
