The support has been amazing within the course. Most tutors are very helpful and often respond well to enthusiasm and promote opportunities across the uni. One issue is teaching quality and standards across practicals, often there are discrepancies across how different lecturers help, guide and mark practical work. We had to issue a formal complaint due to unfair marking and guidance, which the university dealt with very hastily and with lots of support. The course material is very informative. Although each year just builds on knowledge previously learnt which may seem repetitive but is vital for getting a job later.

It’s a lot of theory with some practical applications later on. I appreciate that there was a lot of knowledge imparted to us but I feel that I’ve missed out on some things because of the strikes. read more

Best student accommodation Ive every lived in!! Zenith has a rooftop bar perfect for sunset lovers and golden hours it also has a game area, a cinema and perfect study spaces overall the facilities are amazing! Location wise its aprox a 5-8 min walk to town and 10-15min to Cardiff Bay, however, you have a supermarket right next door to Zenith and we are also offered bicycles to explore around :) Zenith staff regularly organises activities such as movie nights allowing us to choose the movies or basketball tournaments and much much more.. The staff is great, always helping out and making us have the best experience (especially Angela, always so friendly and helpful). I love the Zenith experience and Very much recommend! Thank you Zenith, will miss you all! read more

only the biological lecturers were actually teaching and not just reading off powerpoints. I loved psy in AL but this degree is literally just constantly throwing research studies at you with the lack of context or discussion which really kills it for me. I really don't know many people who genuinely love this course read more
