I've been speaking with my parents all evening and now just read your post and it's really had an impact on me! Everything you mentioned reminds me so much of KCL and why I didn't like it. When I left people said to me I'm crazy for throwing away the scholarship money but I did it because my happiness came first. Yes, if I were to return, they would still give me the scholarship but it's really come down to Warwick vs LSE. I would still choose LSE over KCL, I just don't think KCL(and the scholarship) is worth it if I could stay at home and attend Warwick. LSE is on another level, that's the only reason I'm reconsidering my decision to move out for uni. But having read what you've said about it, the experience seems very lonely, competitive and dead, not ideal for someone like me who suffers from severe anxiety and comes from a poor working class background.
