Best uni for studying?

Hi @Orla9099,

The 'best' university can vary depending on individual preferences, academic interests and specific criteria like location and accommodation. There are university league tables (link: https://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk/league-tables/rankings) which can provide a good place to start. They rank universities based on entry requirements, student satisfaction, research quality and graduate prospects. You can search by both university and course to see where it ranks against other UK unis. In the UK there are also a group of universities called the Russel Group which are seen to be very prestigious.

League tables are just a starting point as there may be other factors you want to consider like campus unis vs. city unis, sports facilities and industry placement opportunities. There are many different factors that make up the 'best' place to study and this may be different for every single person. Consider what is important to you and use resources like uni websites, league tables and open days to help you to decide what is best for you.

Depends on the course. Some uni courses have more support/ facilities.

Engineering and medicine

For medicine, all medical schools are equal. Just a manner of preference - would you want to do an intercalated year, different medical schools have different teaching styles. For example, ‘traditional’ or ‘integrated’. Traditional - you do all knowledge in 3 years, work experience 2. Integrated - knowledge and practical experience integrated together
For engineering, look at the course modules and decide on which one you like better.
This isnt something me, an online stranger, can help you with. Only you can look for engineering courses and decide on which one you want to do.
