It is in a great location with good facilities like laundry, study areas, gym. The security is reliable, and the social atmosphere is lively. However, rent is a bit high, and maintenance can be slow. Overall, a decent place for students. read more

This is a tough course. If you want to go into the biology field but aren't sure which speciality I'd recommend it, but don't just choose it because you want to go to uni but don't know what course to take or whether you actually want to go into science afterwards. read more

Lectures are mostly uninspiring, with lecturers reading from a PowerPoint and not interacting well, and then we are told ‘the best students will go beyond the lectures and read, etc, etc’ without much inspiration to do so. Assignments are uninteresting, but the module content itself is great. It helps that I’m still interested in biology, but the module structure does not reflect science learning or knowledge building culture well. Students silently sit in lectures and then mostly teach content ourselves. Lab access was decent, but I pay the same amount in third year despite no lab use at all. It’s been good at points, but overall disappointing. read more
