Are you talking about BEng, MEng, degrees with placement years, or what?
Just in general. I've already put down a mixture but regardless of the type of course, what is the optimum number of years to stay in a uni is what I'm asking.
It depends on what you want to do - that's why there are different lengths! If you're not sure, I'd go with 3 years first and then you can always decide to do more afterwards.

Actually, it's usually easier to drop down from an MEng to a BEng.

The optimum number of years depends on the qualification you want to achieve.
It is what it is. If you want a MEng it takes 4 years. If you want to add a YINI then it's 5. If you just want a BEng without YINi then it's 3.
What do *you* want?
And as noted it's easier to apply for the "longer" course and then drop down if you decide you want to stop sooner.
