  My course is very enjoyable. The course is relatively well structured, and the course tutors are all passionate, knowledgeable and helpful. The teaching is good quality with detailed feedback.

  I really love my accommodation. It was the one I chose in the beginning. The location is absolutely perfect, only a 1 minute walk to my lectures but also right in the middle of everything. As my court was recently renovated, I count myself very pleased to have a modern kitchen, and also to have cleaners cleaning after everyone. The only thing that bothers me is that it can get really noisy when people are going on nights out.

  Feedback isn't as good as I'd like, we don't do mock exams etc. Teaching is great!

  The course has been a bit of a rollercoaster if I'm honest, last year was really good and I felt I was well supported however last semester was quite bad because the department just had so many different organisational and logistical problems leading to a bad experience for that semester. This semester has been fine so far though
