"It's a massive university with a wide range of students making for a very sociable place to be. The uni offers a wide range of courses and the is academically challenging. Unfortunately the library can become full at exam and essay times making it difficult to revise and sometimes there is a lack of popular texts within the library too. However overall the university is indeed of a very high standard."

"best thing is the city, manchester is amazing, always something going on, so many nights out and something to suit everyone.
worst thing would be the bus ride in to uni, most students live in fallowfield which is a short bus journey which is not enjoyable on a hangover at 9 oclock in the morning."
