    Headline of Inquire magazine: "Kent going strong in league tables". Read further down the article and it's not even in the top 20
    Moved from about 28/29th to 22nd in a year though. It's not half bad

    I wonder what happened.

    I think archeology at kent is well regarded. Top subjects I think are American Studies, Law (I think), Anthropology...can't remember the rest.

    Me too :sad:

    Yea, archaeology and forensics (combined for some reason) is 18th which isn't bad going.

    I can't remember the list either. Maybe classics?

    English lit I think. But it very much depends on the league table, there are so many.

    At the end of the day, we could be at a much worse uni. It's not all about the league tables

    I know...still, you do have to wonder what caused such a dramatic drop in subjects such as psychology, in only two years. but compared to other unis were not doing badly.

    In case anyone doesn't know, you can't get your results on the SDS. You have to go to a different website.

    http://www.kent.ac.uk/socsci/studyin...amresults.html

    (Not sure if that's for all faculties)

    It gives you a choice when you try and log into SDS anyway. I'd imagine it's the same for everyone.

    The direct link is https://results.kent.ac.uk
