Personally hated the course, the first year is so difficult and irrelevant. I found it to be very plant based and a lot more science based than it was described. read more

Don't have high hopes for first year. Most the modules are irrelevant. I think we've probably done more biochemistry and geology than animals. Majority of lecturers are great, however some are awful, and happens to be who we had when everyone except one person on the course failed the exam we had. My tutor is extremely helpful and I know the other tutors are too. Looking forward to second year so we actually do someone with some relevance though. read more

Course title is quite misleading. Hardly any modules specifically relatable to animals. Not prepared for the skills required to do some pieces of coursework. Some Lecturers uninterested and delivery of lectures can be poor. Some not willing to help with hard pieces of coursework. Some tutors and lectures are brilliant however. read more
