    SOAS summer intensive course review?
    I've just finished uni and am planning to take up a summer intensive course (1 week is £300!) in Arabic or Japanese @ SOAS (July timetable is not out yet though)

    My question is:

    1) Has anybody been to the SOAS Languages Centre Summer Intensive courses?
    2) What did you think? (Especially if choosing Arabic and/or Japanese)
    3) Is it worth the £300, or are there any other alternatives?

    Thanks in advance y'all!

    Im doing an intensive course in environment and develoment, but I have heard that soas is very good at language courses.
    They specilise in teh study of oriental languages so it'll probably be very good, and the price doesn't seem expensive to me
