top 10 unis for pharm

In your honest views what would you lot say

Aren't there barely 10 unis that offer pharmacy? Lol... I don't think it matters too much, because really a pharmacy degree is a pharmacy degree... I think it's just preference of area more than anything... Obviously the more prestigious unis like Kings, Bath, LSOP and stuff would be up there but after those, it's anyone's guess...

Totally 'unbiased' view: Manchester, followed by Nottingham

Nottingham is the best University for pharmacy. Entry standards are quite high (450-ish) though. It has a quite big pharmacy course, they intake about 200+ students.

Come to Bath, its fantastic!
Seriously though think about what matters to you. Yes Manchester is a good uni, but if you dont like big cities you wont like it. If youre used to living in, say, Cornwall and dont want to go too far away from home, dont apply to Strathclyde.
What Im trying to say is be very wary of which unis are cnsidered to be 'best'. Which places will you be happy at?

When I went for my interview at Nottingham I found it all to be really pretentious ...

Nottingham was a bit cheap actually. I'd say Bath is the best.

Bath seems a bit stuck in the past to me, after all virtually all the buildings are listed (historical value etc). Apart from the sports halls, not much else of the uni is great. My local pharmacist tells me that the teaching isny too good. I switched Bath to Nottingham, my friends went to an open day and they say it was nice.

News paper articles say that Bath is the best, with highest graduate employment. It looks like Nottingham is very good as well.
