Only in 2 days a week, which they do for commuting students and working around uni, but it also feels like you don't get much teaching. You have to do a lot of the work independently. The lecture content is good but you only really get like 6 hours a week of teaching. I have a personal tutor, but don't have to see her much and have no need to contact her. I have no idea what job prospects there are because they have told us in passing about jobs past students have now, but when I asked about jobs at an open day, I was brushed off and told not to worry about it read more

Can't say I've ever had to meet my personal tutor so can't really comment there. Disappointed that text books aren't included in the already expensive course as they add up over the year - would rather pay 9k instead of the 8k I do and have them included (along with printing) read more
