It's not too bad, it varies from uni to uni. About 25-30 hours (of lectures) a week, sometimes a bit less, but at least 20.

You'll have labs as well to do, particularly for 1st and 2nd years. At my uni they were near 3 hrs each, and you'd do that sometimes twice a week. Workload's steady sometimes can be tough but it's generally ok. You'll have about 4-6 exams each semester or so. Challenging overall but worth it I'd say.

i presume though that at the very highest level imperial is full up?, but wow UCl is pretty good, would you say that's just a blip, or is the department shrinking through time?

well UCL does not enter clearing in any subject each year so I guess its not really desperately looking for student
EEE dept is not huge here, we know each other's name pretty much after a term
