I love medicine at the university of Sheffield. The lectures are generally very informative and interesting, however you do get the occasional lecture which you might find pointless or not necessary. The lecturers are very helpful and are always giving plenty of opportunities to ask questions, and are very approachable. The course structure is very clear and everything links together very well meaning it is easy to understand different concepts. read more

Really good here at Sheffield, full body dissection, lots of clinical contact (which is great!) and different teaching methods so you never get bored. The pace is relatively fast too which means there's always something being taught in one of your sessions which you're interested in, even if you're not all that into the body system. read more
