My brother has just been offered a place at the University of Leeds to do a Masters. He has just bought a flat with his girlfriend in Wilmslow, Cheshire (near Manchester) and wants to commute by train from Wilmslow to Leeds. He has just recieved his timetable and he will need to be in lectures 4 days a week. What do you think? Is this a reasonable commute or will this be too stressful for him?
Not wanting to be negative, but I've just spent the year commuting from Leeds to Lancaster University (which I'm guessing is a similar distance) and would not recommend it! Exhausting and expensive! x
I'm interested to know what your brother decided to do.
I am moving to Leeds from Oldham (probably the same distance Wilmslow to Leeds) because an hour and a half there and back each day is just not worth it, but then again I have no commitments such as a flat or girlfriend.
