Remember to look at top 10 for your course :biggrin: Not overall rankings like QS Top Universities. You don't wanna end up at UCL for mechanical engineering

Absolutely. Overall rankings are stupid
People exaggerate the difficulty of the UCAS application. I failed my GCSEs (not literally) and got poor AS but have an AAA offer for BEng lol

Haha, I didn't mean to do that. xD I wanted to tag you to ask you a question, but I wasn't sure about how to, so I wrote that message to test it and now I'm editing it to say what I wanted to say. Sorry :P

UCL - great for medicine, arts, biological sciences etc. Not so much for engineering.

Some underrated unis for engineering would be Southampton, Bath and Manchester if you're looking at ChemE.

Also there was a thread from a final year UCL engineer which had a lot of agreements, basically saying UCL Chem/mech eng is crap
