<p>what subjects will you be taking?</p>
<p>UCL</p>
<p>Adam</p>
<p>International Realtions, European Studies, Russian.</p>
<p>CJ</p>
<p>UCL is perhaps one of the best places in the world for the study of Russian/European Studies. The UCL School of Slavonic and East European Studies is world renowned. That said, King’s has War Studies which is also very famous.</p>
<p>Dionysus - Agree. That’s the dilemma between King’s and UCL for IR. How about location, accomodations, safety, etc. between the 2.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Best UK Universities Probably in this group:</p>
<p>Cambridge, Oxford</p>
<p>LSE, Imperial</p>
<p>Warwick, UCL</p>
<p>Durham, St Andrews, Bristol, Edinburgh</p>
<p>Bath, York, Nottingham</p>
<p>King’s College, Manchester, Cardiff, New Castle, Sheffield, Birmingham, Cardiff, Glasgow and the like</p>
<p>If you don’t know that ‘Newcastle’ is one word why should anyone listen to you about the UK?</p>
<p>“New Castle” is a good uni along with Camb Ridge.</p>
<p>can you please give me an insight into which of these schools have the best economics programs. obviously cambridge, oxford, and lse are the best. but does ucl or any others have solid economics programs?</p>
<p>^^^</p>
<p>UCL, Warwick, Nottingham, Durham, York, Bristol and Bath are usually the names in non-Oxbridge/LSE econ. </p>
<p>By starting salary these break down:
UCL
Warwick
Bath
Bristol
Durham
York
Nottingham</p>
<p>By entry standards:
Warwick
Durham
UCL
Bath
Nottingham
Bristol
York</p>
<p>If I was half decent at math, I would’ve done econ.</p>
<p>Interesting… Do you happen to have a source for that? Kindly post the link.</p>
<p>For entry standards: <a href=“http://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk/single.htm?ipg=8727[/url]”>http://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk/single.htm?ipg=8727</a></p>
<p>For salary: Its from the times–so you’d have to pay. But scroll down to post number 4 for a screenshot.

“Disagree strenuously about this-- medical schools that use ‘problem based learning’ are widely regarded by registrars as worse than those few that still use the traditional system.”</p>
<p>Thats a load of rubbish, because the fact is all medical schools use PBL in some way or another, some just use it more than others for example manchester do, also harvard use PBL a lot for medicine as well.</p>
<p>Registars cant look down on PBL because they wont even know if you came from a PBL med school, because when you apply for your foundation years (equivalent to residency in america) they dont know what med school you came from, its completely annonymous.
Also traditional med schools have more flaws and thats why there teaching is being phased out!
Medical school in england and how well you exceed is completely based on how well you do in your exams and where you rank in your med school, so someone who went to manchester and did better in these areas would do much better in a medical career than someone from oxford who didnt do as well. </p>
<p>Also styles of teaching place very little effect on the exam results achieved by med schools, it is pretty much based on entry requirements and now that med schools in england have all reason there standards to oxbridge level … thus where you go will have little effect!</p>
<p>Sorry if this is a dumb question, but when schools in the UK refer to “medicine”, do they just mean a major similar to pre-med in the US? or do they mean any medical related field. The reason I am asking is because I hope to study optometry, and I am not sure if 1) any of the UK schools even offer this and 2) if they did, is that considered medicine as it is a medical field technically? Anyone know of any schools that offer it?</p>
<p>Medicine is an undergraduate program in the UK. You do a 5-year medical degree and graduate as a doctor.</p>
<p>Have a google.</p>
