Pretty much every complaint you make could have been avoided if you'd just gone to the bloody place before firming it.

Yeah, what this post needed was more detail.
That was painful to read.

So you're saying Exeter is bad because it's not a campus (it is), it's surrounded by farmland (it's in the countryside of course it is), the nightlife isn't as good in rural Devon as in Manchester, it's on league tables and you don't like league tables, Exeter is quiet, the gym is expensive, the teaching is good.

TLDR of the whole thing: op was disappointed by Exeter campus because they thought it was going to be like Norwich.

Can I have 2p for reading the first line?
Dont want to sound rude but i wasted my time reading this.
You could have just said the importance of visiting a uni before actually choosing it.
The other reasons dont really make sense, it is a campus (might not be to your style) and i think most people know that the night life will obviously be better in big cities.

I feel like you've simplified my points too much , and that's what I didn't want to do i wanted to lay it all on the table in a , yes long , but complete form.

As long as they enjoy their writing... :laugh:

Seriously though, OP, these complaints are less Exeter's fault, and more on you for dropping the ball by not visiting. It's a shame, but you have no real, reasonable basis on which to implore other people to avoid the place.
I think I do have a basis for advising people to avoid it because I cannot believe that in the UK there are no nicer places to study than Exeter. Have you lived in Exeter?

Based on your idea of what a place should be, not everybody else's.
