I applied for the course (with Archaeology) on a whim, not expecting to get an offer being a privately educated English person, but to my amazement the offer came through.
So now I'm actually seriously contemplating taking it up. Just wondering what you actually DO on the course, because I saw words like 'folklore' and 'culture', but I don't know how this works in the way of study....
Can anyone elaborate? The Edinburgh website is not the most helpful of all the universities. Also, I read somewhere that at least 30% of Ethnology students at Edinburgh aren't Scottish, is this accurate? And is there a high proportion of mature students on the course? I don't know why, but I'd imagine it was the sort of course that attracted older students...
