@@sarakhreawish6322 It's a really good uni. The facilities and libraries are top tier. However I would say the online learning and student support systems arent really advanced or worth the cost of uni, but thats the case with a lot of unis across the UK and their handling of the pandemic.

I was thinking of applying for the Forensic and Crime Science MSc at UCL after I finish my chem degree. Do UCL applicants get more weight than those applying from different universities?

@sharafatzadran4403 4 месяца назад

Applying to UCL, you need to submit personal statement with other documents,after getting offer letter you need to apply for scholarship Right? so, for scholarship, you need to submit a personal statement again, so can you submit the same personal statement that you submitted while applying for course or write or submit another personal statement. is there any affect of it?

@sharafatzadran4403 4 месяца назад

can you tell me is it ok to ask your professor for acceptance letter by emailing by submiting documents to him rather than applying by ucas for UCL , will that affect on you admission.

@FatimaNaimi 3 года назад

Good question 😂 when you live with someone, your routines naturally synchronise. We mostly slept around the same time and studied at the same time but on days when this wasn’t the case, I’d sit in the kitchen or study in the uni library which was near our place and open 24/7. Eventually we also bought eye masks and ear plugs for sleeping so if one of us wanted the light on it wouldn’t really be an issue. Hope that helps!
