QUEEN MARY UNIVERSITY OF LONDON
Overall Rating

Good Uni & Course which is getting better. With better careers service and amenities would easily be 4 stars.
Student Union

Did not see much action from the union myself, not many event through the year. The one piece of action they took caused me trouble getting to a revision lecture.
Clubs and Societies

Majority of societies have there core with religion/nationality. I did not have great involvement as nothing appealed greatly despite a range of sports societies.
Accommodation

Varies depending on how much you are willing to pay. London prices to be expected but the cheaper options are poor.
Uni Facilities

A lot of investment taking place, many computer rooms and new buildings have modern look. Older rooms/lecture theatres beginning to look a bit tired.
Course and Lecturers

Lecturers are extremely competent in all cases and are all more than capable of teaching there modules. The majority are more than happy to support you outside of lecture/seminar hours. However a minority are not approachable outside office hours and treat there lectures more like a secondary school classroom i.e. if your 10 minutes late due to a train you are not getting in that lecture theatre/room. One or two are also hard to understand due to speed of speech, accent or complex explanation.
City Life

Central London, easy to get to any club/bar in London.
Job Prospects

I and a few other successfully got offers for finance/banking based graduate schemes. Many struggled and many applications where required - also not many career service events
Student Support

Does depend on the lecturer in question but usually will give great support.
Having said what you have said would you recommend your uni?

Yes
