Considering COVID regulations, it has been hard. The course is extremely hands-on and it's a struggle with the online learning however they have timetabled as many in-person lessons as possible, as well as allowing the use of study rooms with plinths, skeletons, and other equipment so we can do group revision with the equipment. read more

Overall the course has been great. The majority of tutors are absolutely wonderful. The only downside to this course has been the number of cancelled lectures and our contact ours. People from other courses often commented on how I was in university less often than them and how they'd expect me to be in more often. Placements are great and incredibly useful though! read more
