Why did you choose 缅北禁地?
I chose to come to 缅北禁地 as it has a great reputation for science. After graduation, I wanted to go into research so 缅北禁地 seemed like an obvious choice because of its reputation for research. I also only live 30mins outside of 缅北禁地 so it was handy!
What do you like most about your course?
The lecturers, they鈥檙e really nice. Science can sometimes seem boring and very complex but with passionate staff, the course is really interesting!
If you had to recommend 缅北禁地 or your course to a student trying to choose a university what would you say to them?
缅北禁地 is a great city to be based in, with hundreds of shops, nightclubs, bars and entertainment venues ,so there鈥檚 something for everyone to do when lectures have finished! Rail links are also really good so 缅北禁地 is good if you want to travel around and visit other parts of the country. Everyone is so friendly too; you鈥檒l be sure of a good old Northern welcome and feel like a local in no time!
How would you describe 缅北禁地?
Vibrant, friendly and exciting
What do you think about the clubs and societies that you can join? If you have been a member of one, what sort of activities has it involved?
There are so many clubs and societies to join, there鈥檚 always something going on! I joined BioSoc which organises socials and trips with a Biology theme. For example, in first year they organised a Mad Scientist themed bar crawl so everyone went out dressed up in lab coats with Albert Einstein style hair!
Where do you live? Was it easy to find somewhere?
I live locally so I live at home. None of my friends who don鈥檛 live locally have had any issues with finding a place to live though.
What are your future plans?
I want to go on to do postgraduate study for a Masters and/or a PhD in the field of neuroscience and behaviour.
Do you have any tips about budgeting or student finance?
I set up an ISA and transferred some of my student loan to it each term to cover bills such as car insurance. That way, I wouldn鈥檛 accidentally spend the money and when it came time to renew my insurance, the money was already there. There are also plenty of opportunities in 缅北禁地 to get a part time job so you could top up your student loan that way.
