An enjoyable experience all in all, there’s only two buildings off-campus really which is emdeck or cookworthy, but they’re quite close anyways. If you hate hills, invest in an electric bike. Wide range of universities where I have seen many people in them passionate about making them fun for everyone. I’ve personally never had a problem with the wifi after I was able to connect. The careers service is mainly whatever you make of it really, though they are easy to find and there’s always someone there in office hours. I studied biomed last year and would say the best resource we had was the lab plus where you can practice practical methods. read more
