i think barnes is mainly for 2nd and 3rd years that stay on campus. Lindsay tends to have a good mix of people.
I never came across any trouble most people seem really friendly, the only people i found difficult work in accomadation offices!

If u have any questions, am happy to try and help, what u goin to study?
i do English and Geography.

I have got into birmingham first choice, but contemplatin askin for them to release so i can come to keele (my insurance choice) really stuck what to do

Birmingham of course-miles better than Keele and situated in a better place. Repuatation wise I would say Birmingham too ( I assume you want a job after uni).

Birmingham and Keele are about the same in my eyes. It really depends on the kind of person you are and what kind of university you like.

Ha ha ha ha - probably the stupidest thing you have said so far - Keele is one of the best University in the country for graduates getting high paying jobs (£15,000 a year or more) within 6 months of leaving University. Hence why, this year, it is so hugely oversubscribed.

Not just yet. I was worrying about it, so I asked someone at the open day yesterday - apparently it won't come for another week or so!

To be fair-all unis are oversubscribed this year as most people are trying to escape the dreaded top up fees. I still think Birmingham has a sligtly better reputation than Keele.

Birmingham Vs Keele.

I only stated my opinion, just because this is a Keele thread doesn't mean I have to prefer Keele.

Generally it is usual for people who post in Keele threads LIKE Keele and are AT or GOING to Keele. Your brash and ignorant comments/opinions are then most likely going to be met with criticism.

I go to Keele, and I think that Birmingham has a better reputation. I'm not afraid to admit that Keele is not the best university around. It's reputation is good, but lets not delude ourselves that it's an amazing university! I think Keele's reputation WILL improve. It is getting better and better. And yes, it's in a crap area, but university is what YOU make of it. I started out thinking that I wished I'd gone to a big city, but finished the year loving every minute!

Keele does have the best graduate salaries (I think I read that in the guardian, though £15,000 would be disappointing in my opinion), but then you have to consider that from the higher ranked universities graduates tend to do post grads.

Is Keele oversubscribed this year? Because I remember last year that virtually every course was still in clearing.

I'm not saying it's AMAZING AMAZING but I really doubt it's as sh*t as sophieliz seems to imply, no not imply, say it is.

Reply 35

Well, I think it's oversubscribed, there's certainly a big problem with too many first years and not enough accommodation.
