Aston vs Aberdeen vs Exeter bussiness school

Hi guys, I'm an international student outside the EU. Recently I got three offers from the three business schools (and my major is Management in master degree). But I haven't yet decided which university I will go to. Also, I don't have much information about these schools` reputation (the three universities are not known in my country Japan) Could you recommend which one is good among the three

I am also international student and have offer from Aston Exeter both...
Do not study at Exeter university. I wrote a 4000 word essay on why you shouldn't study there. PLEASE listen to me and don't go to Exeter university. I spent 3 years there and hated it, it's the worst.
My advice is to go to Aberdeen or Aston.

Because I deleted the original essay it only exists in a quote, but I'm trying to get the essay reinstated and the thread reopened. It would be helpful if you read the essay and then read through the whole thread. If you have any questions about Exeter I'm happy to answer them but here is one thing I will say now. Exeter runs one of the most duplicitous and greasy marketing campaigns in the higher education industry. You have to be REALLY careful because Exeter lies through its teeth to get international students.
You don't understand how much they lie and twist things, Its so messed up and wrong that they are able to manipulate people like this.

You should go to Exeter. Best 3 years of my life. Much better than the 2 other universities. Ranked 3rd in England according to The lasted Guardian rankings which came out today. Triple accreditation etc.

Also, Exeter has one of the highest student satisfaction rates of any Uni in England meaning most loved it at Exeter. Every uni will have a few people(a small minority) who did not enjoy it. However these people would most likely have been unhappy no matter where they went.
I talk about the student ranking measurement system in the essay and how it misrepresents the reality. The measurement rankings are manipulated by Exeter to favour it, and the student satisfaction measurement is inaccurate. DO NOT GO TO EXETER, you will regret it.

Exeter >>>>>Aston>Aberdeen
Guardian ranking? No one reads the guardian, the guardian is such fake news, you cannot trust the guardian. You cannot trust the guardian and you cannot trust these people, you just can't.

You would have had an even better time at a different university.

I don't think the campus was beautiful.

Hi,

Congratulations on your offers. Our business school is ranked within the top 100 in the world by QS with Exeter falling in within the top 200 and Aberdeen in the top 400. We are also in the 1% of business schools in the world holding triple accreditation.

If you have any questions, just give me a shout and i'll be happy to answer them for you.

Take it from me I hated Exeter business school. Horrible place and horrible people. Exeter do not care about you at all, which would be fine if it was a nice place, but that's the point it isn't, it's horrible.

Basically you seem to be against Exeter purely because you don't like the area, which is very subjective and something I'm sorry to say you should have found out before deciding to firm it.
If all goes well on August 15th, I'll be going to Penryn in September.

hi, thank you all your comments, and you don't have to worry cuz I will study there for a year, for my master degree. BTW, I might go for Exeter or Aston University because they are A specialised business school.
